Improved Yield and Functional Parameters of Rat Pancreas Islets Isolated under Intramuscular Anesthesia

Intraperitoneal (IP) anesthesia is commonly used for laboratory animal experiments including rat islet isolation. However, the direct effects of anesthetics on pancreatic islets have been neglected. This study compared the islet function and recovery yield from rats that were anesthetized using IP a...
