We have developed a new and simplified injection technique based on a mixture of latex and lead oxide. This injection technique is unique in its possession of both color and radio-opacity. We have developed and refined this methodology in rats, and have demonstrated it to possess superior qualities of injectability. Depiction of small vessels is highly detailed both radiographically and grossly.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007840 Latex A milky, product excreted from the latex canals of a variety of plant species that contain cauotchouc. Latex is composed of 25-35% caoutchouc, 60-75% water, 2% protein, 2% resin, 1.5% sugar & 1% ash. RUBBER is made by the removal of water from latex.(From Concise Encyclopedia Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 3rd ed). Hevein proteins are responsible for LATEX HYPERSENSITIVITY. Latexes are used as inert vehicles to carry antibodies or antigens in LATEX FIXATION TESTS. Latices,Latice
