[Creation of experimental emphysema by the intratracheal administration of papain].
The authors formed lung emphysema in white rats under experimental conditions by intratracheal application of various concentrations of papaine at different intervals. In the performed experiment the most suitable dose for formation of emphysema was two fold administration of 2 milligrams of papaine. The following indices were observed in the experimental and control animals: body weight, weight coefficient of the internal organs, indices of lipid and nucleinic metabolism in homogenates of lung as well as histomorphologic examination of lung.
