Pain Control & Pain Research in Swine
Methods for assessing pain, designing analgesic protocols, and interpreting behavioral pain indicators in pigs.
Comparative cardiovascular physiology and pathology in selected lineages of minipigs: Relation to drug safety evaluation
This article presents the results of cardiovascular assessments in the Yucatan, Hanford, Sinclair, and Göttingen minipigs conducted during nonclinical investigations and control toxicity testing.
Husbandry and Handling Recommendations for Miniature Swine Upon Receipt
Guidelines for receiving, housing, and acclimating miniature swine when they arrive at research facilities.
Pigs in Toxicology: Breed Differences in Metabolism and Background Findings
Both similarities and differences exist in phase I and phase II biotransformation pathways between humans and pigs. There are numerous breeds of pigs, yet only a few of these breeds are characterized with regard to both xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes and background pathology findings.
VEGF receptor targeted imaging of angiogenic response to limb ischemia in diabetic vs. non-diabetic Yucatan minipigs
As a translational study, we performed targeted imaging of receptors for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in response to anterior femoral artery occlusion (FAO) in Yucatan minipigs and compare the normal response to response in diabetic Yucatan minipigs.
Drug Dosages & Continuous Rate Infusion Protocols for Cardiovascular Research in Swine
Reference drug dosing tables and infusion protocols used in cardiovascular experiments involving swine.
Miniature Swine Breeds in Toxicology and Drug Safety Assessments: What to Expect during Clinical and Pathology Evaluations
Translational preclinical swine study data presented support the current finding that miniature swine are the animal model of choice for assessment of drug absorption, tolerance, and systemic toxicity following systemic exposures.
