Colon submucosal Microdialysis: A novel in vivo approach in barrier function assessment - a pilot study in rats

Abstrakt

During shock, prognosis of a patient depends largely on intestinal berrier function. The potency of gut epithelium to represent an obstacle to toxins is determined by the blood supply.

All established methods of mucosal function determination necessitate the functional involment of bloodstream. Both media contained equal amounts of radioactive tracer substance (Cr-EDTA).
