Würzburg is delightful...and so is GV-SOLAS! We're here at the 61st Scientific Conference of the Society for Laboratory Animal Science September 11-13th so come on by and have a chat!

Registration is open for the RRSC Glucose Clamp course which teaches participants the necessary skills to design, execute, and analyze a glucose clamp experiment in conscious, freely moving rats and mice from surgery to data analysis. https://bit.ly/4dQEXd4

Just a few spots remain in the "Vascular Cannulation Utilizing the Instech Vascular Access Button in Rabbits" workshop at ASR! The use of Vascular Access Buttons™ in rabbits provides reliable and chronic vascular access for infusion and blood collection during PK/PD studies. This wet lab will provide a hands-on opportunity to learn the implantation of these devices via the femoral artery and vein. Students will focus on aseptic technique, vessel dissection & isolation, catheter placement, subcutaneous tunneling and implantation of the button. Additionally, proper maintenance and care of the buttons will be reviewed to ensure long term patency and success of the implant. Follow the link to register. https://bit.ly/3ME7Z3C

🚨Our 7-day Glucose Clamp Course returns in November, just in time for you to give your #laboratory #rodents🐭 the gift of unstressed freedom of movement for Christmas🎄 Jointly organized by René Remie Surgical Skills Centre, TSN Scientific, and Instech Laboratories, Inc., we will cover all aspects of the gold-standard technique for assessment of #insulin action, from dual-catheter #surgery, over #tracer theory, study design and execution to #data analysis and reporting📊 🚀Join us in Almere, NL, on November 9-15, 2024 for 7 days of comprehensive training in #experimental surgery and freely moving infusion/sampling techniques🧪 You will discover how the chronic dual-catheter model in rodents is probably one of the most versatile tools, not just for #metabolic #phenotyping, but for in vivo #physiology, #pharmacology, and #toxicology in general. 💡More information and registration here: https://lnkd.in/dCcspR84 Rene Remie, Irene Cuesta Cobo, Thomas Penning, Paul Loughnane, Eric Suro

"A Study on Patency with a 3 Fr Rat Catheter" Test 1: Standard externalization with traditional technique - 6mm of blood in the catheter. Test 2: Vascular Access Button™ without positive pressure technique - 3mm of blood in the catheter. Test 3: VAB™ with positive pressure technique - no blood in the catheter.
