SCr was measured at 6, 24, and 72 hours postoperatively after the ischemic event. After obtaining a 1 mL blood sample from the marginal auricular vein, we centrifuged the sample at 3,000 rpm for 5 minutes. Measurement of SCr was performed using a DRI-CHEM 4000 chemistry analyzer (Heska, Loveland, CO).

Three groups were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA); uninfected control (n = 3), euthanized due to disease (n = 6), and infected (asymptomatic) survivors (n = 3). Hematology was performed on whole blood collected in EDTA (Becton–Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) using a Heska HemaTrue Analyzer. Blood collected into SST tubes (Becton-Dickinson) was centrifuged at 1000× g for 10 min at 4 °C and serum analyzed with a Heska DRI-CHEM 4000 chemistry analyzer (Heska, Loveland, CO, USA).

ELISA kits (Abcam, Cambridge, MA) were used according to the manufacturer's instructions to measure the levels of cytokines interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was measured with Heska DRI-Chem 4000 (Heska, Tokyo, Japan).

Quantifying Inflammation and Organ Injury

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Heparinized blood samples were centrifuged at 2000g for 15 minutes, serum was collected, and samples were stored at −80°C for future analysis. Peritoneal fluid samples remaining after plating bacterial cultures were stored at −80°C for future analysis. Thawed samples then underwent quantitative analysis for markers of inflammation (IL-6, TNFα, IL-10) and renal failure (Cystatin C) using enzyme immunoassay kits (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). Cystatin C has emerged as a more precise marker of glomerular filtration rate and has been validated in murine and human studies (46 (link)–48 (link)). Liver injury was quantified by measuring alanine aminotransferase (ALT) using a Heska DRI-CHEM 4000 automated dry chemistry analyzer (Heska, Loveland, CO).

Comprehensive Plasma Biochemistry and Hematology

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To evaluate liver and kidney parameters during the course of infection, a comprehensive 18-parameter plasma biochemistry panel was performed on all plasma samples. Parameters tested include total protein (TP), albumin (ALB), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), glucose (GLU), total bilirubin (TBIL), phosphate (PHOS), cholesterol (CHOL), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), calcium (Ca), creatinine (CRE), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST). The analysis was performed using a DRI-CHEM 4000 (HESKA; Des Moines, IA) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
For determination of complete blood counts, EDTA-anticoagulated whole-blood samples were analyzed on an automated Advia 120 Hematology Analyzer (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostic Inc., Tarrytown, NY, USA) to obtain red blood cell (RBC) counts, calculated hemoglobin (calc HGB), hematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean cell hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), cell hemoglobin concentration mean (CHCM), red cell distribution width (RDW), white blood cell (WBC) counts, band neutrophil (Band) counts, neutrophil (Neut) counts, lymphocyte (Lymph) counts, monocyte (Mono) counts, eosinophil (Eos) counts, basophil (Baso) counts, platelet (PLT) counts, and mean platelet volume (MPV).

Blood samples were collected via the arterial sheath side port during the procedure and prior to euthanasia. The blood samples were either collected in EDTA-Vacuette tube (Greiner Bio-One, North American, Inc., Monroe, NC), or allowed to clot in a Vacuette tube for 30 minutes at room temperature and then centrifuged at 1,500 xg for 5 minutes to obtain serum aliquots. Complete blood count and serum levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), creatinine (CRE), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), glucose (Glu) were measured using an automated analyzer (HemaTrue, Heska, Loveland, CO) and a Veterinary Chemistry Analyzer (DRI-CHEM 4000, Heska, Loveland, CO), respectively. Serum samples were analyzed using the porcine cytokine/chemokine array 13-plex (Eve Technologies, Calgary, CA) and the analyte concentrations were expressed in picogram per mL.

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.
