Automated Blood Sampling

This module can be of interest to those who want to master catheterisation techniques of the jugular vein, the femoral vein, and the carotid artery in rats and mice. These models also allow for automated blood sampling using, e.g., the BASi turning cages in combination with the Culex autosampler. The Association Suisse des Vétérinaires Cantonaux recognized this course.

In addition, it will typically involve catheterisation of;

  • the rat or mouse jugular vein
  • femoral vein
  • the rat or mouse carotid artery
  • the rat or mouse hepatic portal vein
  • other techniques of particular interest to participants by agreement before or during the module.

Here, you will find the automated blood sampling course program.
