A novel method is described for the reproducible administration of known liquid quantities to the peripheral airways of the isolated perfused rat lung. The basis of the technique was to use a 25-microL metered dose of fluorocarbon propellant to expel liquid (as a coarse spray) from an intratracheal

We report studies of the effect of ischemia on the metabolic activity of the intact perfused lung and its restoration after a period of reperfusion. Two groups of rat lungs were studied using hyperpolarized 1โ^13^C pyruvate to compare the rate of lactate labeling differing only in the temporal order
A model is described to study absorption kinetics of drugs in the unanesthetized rat. The surgical technique consists of a long-term isolation of an intestinal segment inside the animal. This isolated loop is used in perfusion experiments. In this model the effects of anesthesia and surgical trauma
