Colorectal Tumor Monitoring in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Colonoscopy was performed on AOM-treated mice at 15 weeks to monitor tumor progression, using a miniature endoscope (30°, 1.9 mm, rigid) that had an examination sheath (9 French size), xenon light source, video monitor and camera with a capability to record video and still images (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany). Mice were not fasted and the procedure was conducted under anesthesia by isoflurane to minimize the pain. Colonic lavage was performed with distilled water using oral gavage needle (20 gauge) prior to sheath insertion.

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.
