Apparatus for isolated cardivascular tissues and organs; measurements of CVS parameters "in vivo" and "in situ"

Edit
Purpose of equipment
Equipment for the isolated organs is used to study the pharmacological activity of studied drugs on the cardiovascular system. The apparatus for isolated heart can be used to study the protective anti-ischemic activity of active substances by prior induction of ischemic damage or potential toxic activity of the studied toxins on myocardium. The apparatus for isolated blood vessels can be used to examine vasorelaxation (vasodilation) or potential toxic effects of studied substances.
Access of equipment
Responsible for equipment: PhD Gorazd Drevenšek
Apparatus for isolated heart allows measurements of left ventricular contractility, coronary flow, heart rate and electrophysiological measurements (ECG). Apparatus for isolated blood vessels enables recording of isometric contraction and relaxation of the vascular rings, the cardiac atrial preparations or other internal organs.
