A method for catheterization, harnessing and chronic infusion of undisturbed chickens.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A system was designed to facilitate the chronic infusion and/or serial blood sampling of rapidly growing, meat-type chickens with little or no stress to the bird. Techniques for surgically preparing an indwelling catheter, fabricating a harness system to protect this catheter, utilizing a miniature fluid swivel to provide free movement and infusing solutions via a programmable pump are described.

While it is important to support the development of methods for public participation, we argue that this should not be at the expense of a broader consideration of the role of public participation. We suggest that a rights based approach provides a framework for developing more meaningful approaches that move beyond public participation as synonymous with consultation to value the contribution ...
متن کاملChronic low-dose angiotensin II infusion increases venomotor tone by neurogenic mechanisms.
The purpose of this study was to identify changes in venomotor tone in the chronic low-dose angiotensin II (Ang II) model of hypertension and to establish the contribution of sympathetic nerve activation to these venomotor tone changes. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were acclimatized to a 0.4% or 2.0% NaCl diet for 7 days and then catheterized to allow chronic and repeated measures of arterial press...

متن کاملDevelopment of the indicator amino acid oxidation technique in chickens: L-[1-(14)C]phenylalanine infusion dose and phenylalanine oxidation.
Amino acid requirements of broiler breeder chickens are not well known. The indicator amino acid oxidation (IAAO) technique was adapted for use in broiler breeders as a rapid and sensitive method to determine amino acid requirements. During IAAO, phenylalanine oxidation decreases, inversely to the changes in protein synthesis, as the intake of the limiting test amino acid increases from deficie...
