An Intubator and Control System for Intratracheal Inoculation of Dust in Chickens
Poultry Science, 1970 Abstract Transmission of Marek’s disease (MD) a lymphoproliferative disease of chickens is usually achieved in the laboratory by parenteral inoculation of infective material into the abdomen or subcutis. However, work at this laboratory has involved intratracheal inoculation of dry dust material in studies of the airborne transmission of MD.

Intubation-mediated Intratracheal (IMIT) Instillation: A Noninvasive, Lung-specific Delivery System [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2014 Respiratory disease studies typically involve the use of murine models as surrogate systems. However, there are significant physiologic differences between the murine and human respiratory systems, especially in their upper respiratory tracts (URT). In some models, these differences in the murine nasal cavity can have a significant impact on disease ...
