The Pediatric Animal Physiology Core is a centralized resource specializing in survival surgery for rats and mice in addition to assistance with other USDA regulated animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, and piglets. The core director assists all investigators with development of IACUC protocols. Surgical services currently offered by the Core include pulmonary banding in rat and neonatal rabbit, aortic banding, myocardial infarction, 5/6th nephrectomy for chronic kidney disease, liver-ischemia reperfusion and ultrasound guided injection ideally suited for targeted drug or cell therapy delivery. The Core also has available for use a Visualsonics Vevo 3100 High Frequency Ultrasound system that allows high resolution small animal ultrasound examinations for noninvasive measurement of in-vivo structure and function. Studies can either be conducted in an assisted fashion or investigators can reserve the equipment and utilize their own laboratory personnel.
