Background:

  • The rat cremaster muscle is a well-established model for studying microcirculation in living tissues.
  • Existing methods for microcirculation inspection have limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel technique for indirect catheterization of the rat cremaster muscle pedicle.
  • To enable perfusion, drainage, and blood sampling for enhanced microcirculation analysis.
  • To facilitate the assessment of reperfusion injury and perfusant effects.

Main Methods:

  • Indirect catheterization of the rat cremaster muscle pedicle.
  • Perfusion and drainage of the muscle.
  • Collection of blood samples from the microcirculation.
