Intubation-mediated Intratracheal (IMIT) Instillation: A Noninvasive, Lung-specific Delivery System [PDF]
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 ...
