title: [A model for long-term parenteral feeding in the rat].
abstract: A model has been developed for the intravenous feeding in unrestrained rats, with use of simple technique and nutritional solutions, available in every hospital. The major survival time is 6-8 weeks. During the parenteral nutrition the rats gain weight and are in a excellent general health. The cumulative nitrogen balance is with a 95% retention highly positive.
