This video describes the procedure for the generation of a mouse model with acute biliary pancreatitis via pancreatic infusion of sodium taurocholate. This model helps study pathophysiological changes induced by sodium taurocholate in the pancreas.
Protocol
All procedures involving animal models have been reviewed by the local institutional animal care committee and the JoVE veterinary review board. 1. Laparotomy Anesthetize animals with xylazine (10 mg/kg) and ketamine solution (80 mg/kg), subcutaneously (0.1 mL/10g of body weight) using a 1 mL syringe and 13 x 0.45 mm needle 26 G ½. Check for sufficient anesthesia depth by pinching the toe. Control body temperature using heated pads. Ensure that all surgical ma…
