FAQs of Frog heart chamber:
Q: How do I set up the frog heart chamber for an experiment?
A: Minimal assembly is required; simply attach the provided tubes and clamps to the ports, secure the removable transparent lid, and connect the oxygen tube if oxygenation of saline is needed. The chamber is then ready for manual operation and perfusion.
Q: What types of laboratories is this heart chamber suitable for?
A: This frog heart chamber is compatible with both college and university laboratories, making it suitable for educational experiments as well as research in biology and physiology.
Q: When should I use the oxygen tube attachment during a laboratory procedure?
A: The oxygen tube should be used whenever saline oxygenation is required, such as in experiments focusing on optimal cardiac function in frog hearts. It ensures the saline remains properly aerated throughout the test.
Q: Where should I place the chamber during operation for maximum stability?
A: Place the chamber on a flat, stable surface. The heavy and non-skid base is designed to prevent sliding or tipping, which is especially important during sensitive physiological experiments.
Q: What is the process for cleaning and maintaining the chamber after use?
A: After each experiment, detach the drainage system to easily remove used saline and rinse the chamber. The borosilicate glass and metal frame can be sterilized using standard laboratory cleaning protocols, ensuring readiness for future use.
Q: How does continuous saline circulation benefit frog heart experiments?
A: Continuous circulation provided by the dual inlet/outlet ports helps maintain optimal physiological conditions for the frog heart, supporting accurate measurement and observation of cardiac function during experiments.
