In our first experiment, Merino sheep (n = 13) were measured for DMP over 22 h using open circuit chambers.
Crossbred Dorset and Border Leicester and Merino ewes (n = 40, LW 54 ± 10.9 kg) were measured for three 22 h sessions in open circuit chambers, after which they were measured for 1 h in portable static chambers.
Following four days of habituation, during which mice were exposed to 125 ml/min of fresh oxygen flow in 250 ml cylindrical open circuit chambers for 2 hours, anesthetic testing began [51].
Dose lost in the high flow circuit, humidification chamber and nasal cannula was higher with the vibrating-mesh nebulizer as compared to the jet nebulizer (75.2 ± 8.2 vs 45.0 ± 6.2% of the nominal dose, p = 0.001).
In this issue of EBioMedicine, a research group led by Margarida Amaral (Awatade et al., 2015) described a method to functionally characterize the activity of CFTR in human primary lung cells by measuring the forskolin plus genistein-inducible equivalent short-circuit current in perfused open-circuit Ussing chamber (forskolin and genistein being pharmacological stimulators of CFTR).
Judge Diarmuid F. O'Scannlain, of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, whose chambers are in Portland, officiated at Garden Vineyards in Hillsboro, Ore.
Last month, he completed a clerkship for Chief Judge Alex Kozinski of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, whose chambers are in Pasadena, Calif.
Judge Boyce F. Martin Jr. of the Federal Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, with chambers in Louisville, officiated at the home of Chris T. Radtke and Dr. Norman D. Radtke, friends of the couple.
The study was performed in open circuit respiration chambers over a 14-day period, consisting of a 9-day adaptation and a 5-day energy balance measurements.
The ammonia emission was measured continuously over 46 h from an open-air-circuit respiration chamber where faeces and urine were mixed in a slurry tray when voided from the pigs.
