[Histonet] Perfusion fixation of pig lungs

[LNLJ (Lene Lyngsie Jensen)]

Hey.

 

I hope that someone here can help me.

 

We are planning to do some research in pig lungs. Due to this
investigation it is very important to have a fast and effective
fixation.

 

We will therefore try to make a perfusion fixation. But a pig is a very
large animal and therefore we would like to limit the fixation only to
the lung region, and not a full body perfusion fixation.

 

Is there anyone how has experience with perfusion fixation limit to only
one organ in pigs? 

 

All suggestion will be read with enthusiasm.

 

Experience from similar fixation methods in other animals is welcome as
well.

 

Thanks.
