title: [Total body washout (T.B.W.) in the rat. 1) Perfusion techniques].
abstract: Three different techniques of total body washout (T.B.W.) have been used in experiments dealing with rats. The first technique was employing inferior vena cava as input and abdominal aorta as output; the second one performed just the opposite way; finally the third used abdominal aorta at the start of the experiment, whereas inferior vena cava was selected at the end. The last one proved to be the most efficient technique in comparison to the other ones.
