Broiler Hen Blood Chemical Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After the hens were subjected to HS for 4 h (38 wk of age), 12 breeder hens from each treatment group were randomly selected for blood chemical analysis using an Abbott i-STAT 1 handheld blood gas analyzer (Abbott Point of Care Inc., IL) equipped with a CG8+ cartridge (Abaxis item number 600-9001). This CG8+ cartridge performed various parameters such as partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) and oxygen (PO2), pH, saturation of oxygen (sO2), concentration of bicarbonate ions (HCO3), total concentration carbon dioxide (TCO2), concentration ionized calcium (iCa), sodium (Na), potassium (K), glucose (Glu), hematocrit (Hct), hemoglobin (Hgb), and base excess (BE). Blood from each breeder hen was collected and quickly placed in a lithium heparin tube that should be used for analysis within 3 min. One hundred μL of blood was dropped into the CG8+ cartridge, which was subsequently inserted into the Abbott i-STAT 1 handheld blood gas analyzer (Barrett et al., 2019 (link)).

Apnea-Induced Cardiac Arrest Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After intracranial monitors had equilibrated to steady state (approximately 60 minutes), we discontinued propofol and collected a baseline arterial blood gas (ABG) sample (i-Stat 1, Abbott Point of Care, Inc.). We administered a rapid IV bolus of fentanyl (30mcg/kg) and vecuronium (10mg) to induce apnea, disconnected the ventilator and occluded the ETT. We recorded the total instrumentation from initial intramuscular sedation to ETT occlusion, and the time from ETT occlusion to cardiac arrest. We defined cardiac arrest as either degeneration to ventricular fibrillation or pulseless electrical activity below an arterial systolic pressure of 40mmHg.

Quantifying Hemolysis in Blood Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Free hemoglobin was measured by photometry. Hematocrit, hemoglobin, pH and glucose were analyzed using a mobile blood gas analysis system (i-STAT 1, Abbott GmbH, Wiesbaden, Germany). For a standardized comparison of hemolysis the normalized milligram index of hemolysis (mgNIH) was calculated (14 (link)). The index is defined as free hemoglobin in mg released from 100 L of circulating blood (14 (link)).

Blood Analysis after Tracheal Extubation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Arterial blood samples of approximately 200 µL taken after each procedure or at time points after tracheal extubation were used for haematological analysis, blood gas analysis and lactate measurements. The i-STAT 1 portable analyser (Abbott Point of Care, Princeton, New Jersey, USA) and the test cartridges (CG4+; Abbott Point of Care) were used with 100 µL samples for gas analysis and lactate measurements, while 50 µL of each blood sample was analysed using the pocH-100iV Diff haematology analyser (Sysmex). Haematocrit was measured with glass capillaries.

Cardiovascular Monitoring in Anesthetized Rats

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Rats were anaesthetised with isoflurane (5% induction, 1.75–2.5% maintenance) in 50:50% N2:O2. Incision sites were subcutaneously injected with 2 mg/kg 0.05% Bupivacaine (Pfizer, Sydney, Australia). Core body temperature was regulated via a thermocoupled rectal probe (RET-2, Physitemp Instruments Inc, Clifton, NJ, USA) and heat mat.
A catheter was inserted into the saphenous branch of the femoral artery and was used to obtain mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate. Blood samples (0.1 mL) were taken from the catheter for arterial blood gas and pH measurements using a fast blood analyser (i-STAT 1; Abbott, Australia). A similar catheter was placed into the femoral vein for infusion of acetazolamide. Oxygen saturation and respiration were monitored throughout procedures.

Myocardial Ischemia Biomarker Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
During the experiment, blood samples were taken at 4 different time points (Table 1). The 0-sample was collected at baseline after induction of anesthesia; the 1-sample 8 hours later, before ischemia; the 2-sample after the release of LAD ligature; and the 3-sample at the end of the experiment. Levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) (P600B; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) and cardiac troponin I (TnI) (MBS2509024; MyBiosource, San Diego, CA) were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Arterial blood gas analysis, hemoglobin, and blood cardiac troponin T (TnT) values were controlled using a point-of-care blood analyzer (i-STAT 1; Abbott Laboratories, Princeton, NJ). At the end of the experiment, the ascending aorta was clamped, the ligature on the LAD was tightened, and an injection of methylene blue to the base of the aorta was given to stain myocardium. Myocardial tissue samples from the site of ischemia, border of ischemia, and healthy myocardium were harvested and frozen after termination of the experiment.

Beta-hydroxybutyrate concentrations were analyzed in whole blood samples using an
automatic analyzer (Precision Xceed, Abbott Lab.); hematocrit (Hct), Hb and BE were
measured using an automatic gas analyzer (i-STAT 1, Abbott Lab.). Changes in relative
plasma volume (rPV) were calculated from Hb and Hct, using accepted formulas [10 (link)].

Continuous Blood Composition Monitoring

Supplementary Tables 1 and 2 online illustrate additional blood composition analyses. To assess the consistency of continuous CDI blood monitoring, blood samples were collected from the reservoir for analysis every 15 min. This included portable clinical analyses (sodium, potassium, chloride, CO2, anion gap, ionized calcium, glucose, urea nitrogen, creatinine, hematocrit and hemoglobin; I-stat 1, Abbott) and separate conventional clinical laboratory analyses of complete blood count and blood chemistry obtained after EPCC.

At each haemodynamic reading, blood samples were simultaneously obtained via the peripheral and pulmonary arterial catheters for blood gas analysis with lactate (Handheld Blood Analyzer iSTAT-1, Abbott Point of Care Inc., Princeton, NJ, USA). Blood samples were also taken to determine concentration of haemoglobin (UniCel DxH 800 Coulter Cellular Analysis System, Beckman Coulter, Inc., Brea, CA, USA), cardiac troponin I by immuno-assay, ethanol and key electrolytes (Na+, K+, Cl-, Ca2+) (AU2700 chemistry analyzer and DXI600 Access Immuno-assay system, Beckman Coulter) before infarct induction and prior to sacrifice.

An I-STAT analyser (I-STAT 1, Abbott Point of Care, Princeton, NJ, USA) was used to analyse the whole blood sample for haemoglobin and forearm venous oxygen saturation ( SvO2 ) using CG8+ test cartridges (Abbott Point of Care). All blood samples were analysed in duplicate, and averaged.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
