Obese Mice Study Proves to Use the Ideal Weight
When working with obese mice, what weight to use when performing flexiVent measurements?
Oxygen Saturation (SPO2) Monitoring During Pulmonary Studies
Oxygen saturation is the fraction of oxygen-saturated hemoglobin relative to total hemoglobin (unsaturated + saturated) in the blood. A very precise and specific balance of oxygen in the blood is necessary to keep the body functioning properly. Monitoring these changes provides complimentary outcomes and a means to quantify subject stress during an experiment.
First Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Mouse Model
Recent study succeeded to develop the first idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis mouse model. Lung function measurements were performed with the flexiVent.
