Overview: In this free webinar, CytoSMART partnered with prominent labs from academia to facilitate an open discussion about the use of live-cell imaging for viability analysis. They covered: The use of both brightfield and fluorescent live-cell imaging to analyze the effect of a treatment on cell viability. How cell viability can be assessed
Scientists out of Vanderbilt and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have established two separate organoid lines derived from active Kras-induced mouse stomach tissue. These organoid lines embody an in vitro system displaying characteristics of abnormal cells within the tissue known as dysplasia. The study published in Nature Communications provides further insights
Chronic blood pressure recordings from the abdominal aorta are commonplace in cardiovascular physiology, however the surgical implantation of catheters can be challenging. This webinar provided an overview of the surgical protocol that we recommend when implanting Kaha Sciences blood pressure telemeters. We also discussed some simple strategies to avoid common problems and the
Carbon paste electrodes connected to a potentiostat have been shown to provide stable measurement of tissue oxygen levels in vivo. Now wireless telemetry from Kaha Sciences allows the chronic long-term measurement of tissue oxygen in rats living in their home cages. This webinar discussed how tissue oxygen measurements are made using carbon paste electrodes, how
Dr Pratik Thakkar from the University of Auckland presented data from their recent Hypertension publication where they used Cohousing mode (two telemeters in a single rat) to simultaneously record ICP, BP and brain tissue oxygen in a rat model of ischemic stroke. Spontaneously hypertensive rats were instrumented with telemeters to record BP, intracranial pressure,
