Recent advances in nuclear-medicine based small-animal imaging technology have enabled researchers to acquire in vivo images of the biodistribution of radiolabeled molecules in small-animal models ...such as mice. The standard imaging method requires the use of anesthetic and/or physical restraint to immobilize the mouse during image acquisition of the radioisotope tracer biodistribution. This has the potential to interfere with neurological or other processes that are being studied.With this in mind, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)and Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (Jefferson Lab), in collaboration with Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPAH)in Sydney, Australia and Johns Hopkins University, designed and constructed a high-resolution single-photon emission tomography (SPECT)system to study unrestrained,unanesthetized mice. Others have reported development of scintillator based PET isotope probes and systems to study the brain of unanesthetized rodents +Woody, 2001, Zimmer, 2002, Vaska, 2001-.
Bilateral constriction of the carotid sinus area by a plastic clamp, with reduction of the palpable pulse of the sinus and the internal carotid artery, produced a significant, sustained increase in ...arterial blood pressure of unknown pathogenesis in the dog.

Journal Article
During eleven visits to nine pig-breeding farms and multiplying herds, 190 piglets were sampled by three different methods. The nares were separately sampled and both nares were sampled with a single ...swab. Three media were used to discover which method and which medium produced the highest isolation-score for Bordetella bronchiseptica (BB). The CDI-Mac Conkey (McC-CDI) plate was used as a reference medium and was compared with the Gezondheidsdienst Mac Conkey (McC-GD) and the new Bordetella plate (Bord.pl). Of the 570 samples collected 303 were positive for Bordetella bronchiseptica. When the McC-CDI BB was used, the score was 286, when the McC-GD was used, it was 264 and when the Bord.pl. was used 277, and BB was present on each of the three plates in 243 cases. When both nares of each piglet were separately sampled, 94 per cent, 87 per cent and 85 per cent of the BB positive-piglets were found to be positive with respectively McC-CDI, McC-GD and the Bord.pl. Sampling each nare with one swab, produced an average BB score of approximately 80 per cent and both nares with a single swab approximately 85 per cent of the BB-positive pigs. Statistical testing showed the McC-CDI to be significantly (P = 0,05) superior to the Bord.pl.
