Degradable Gelatin Microspheres as an Embolic Agent: an Experimental Study in a Rabbit Renal Model
OBJECTIVE To investigate the basic characteristics of degradable gelatin microspheres (GMSs), including their embolic behavior and degradation periods when they are used as embolic materials in the renal arteries of rabbit models. MATERIALS AND METHODS Based on the GMS particle size, 24 kidneys were divided into 3 groups of eight kidneys, and each group was embolized with a different GMS part...
متن کاملrabbit as an animal model for experimental research
animal experimentation is carried out in consultation with the veterinary wing but it is essential that be familiar with experimental protocols of animal model to be able to design an approriate study. this is more so in place where the veterinary facilities are not easily available.span rabbits are commonly used as subjects for screening implant material. they have gained favour for their nume...
متن کاملBiocompatibility of Bletilla striata Microspheres as a Novel Embolic Agent
We have prepared Chinese traditional herb Bletilla striata into microspheres as a novel embolic agent for decades. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biocompatibility of Bletilla striata microspheres (BSMs). After a thermal test of BSMs in vitro, the cell biocompatibility of BSMs was investigated in mouse fibroblasts and human umbilical vein endothelial cells using the methyl tetrazolium...
متن کاملThe utility of the microcrystalline cellulose sphere as a particulate embolic agent: an experimental study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although various particulate materials have been developed as embolization agents, their biocompatibility remains unclear. We used an animal model to examine the possibility of using FDA-approved microcrystalline cellulose spheres (CELPHERE) as solid embolic material for the permanent occlusion of blood vessels. METHODS Angiographic and histologic studies in 12 canine r...
متن کاملEvaluation of Arterial Impairment after Experimental Gelatin Sponge Embolization in a Rabbit Renal Model
OBJECTIVE Arterial stenosis is a major obstacle for subsequent interventional procedures. We hypothesized that the stenosis is caused by gelatin sponge embolization and performed an experimental study in a rabbit renal model. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 24 rabbits were embolized with porcine gelatin sponge particles injected into the renal arteries. Four rabbits were sacrificed on 1 day,...
