Increased vascular permeability and leucocyte emigration in Escherichia coli endotoxin injury in the chicken skin

Effects of anti‐inflammatory drugs on increased vascular permeability in acute inflammatory response in the chicken

“…The response was similar to that evoked in the chicken by other chemical irritants (Awadhiya et al, 1980;Katiyar et al, 1992a).…”

“…Evans blue exuded in the cutaneous lesions was determined quantitatively, using the technique described by Pillai et al (1988) and Katiyar et al (1992a) for the chicken skin. Briefly, each lesion was excised with sufficient surrounding tissue, weighed, chopped into fine fragments and placed in 3 ml formamide for 48 h at 37°C for extraction of the dye.…”

Pathology of inflammatory‐reparative response in punched wounds of the chicken skin

“…The increased vascular permeability in the cutaneous lesion was also estimated quantitatively by the method described by Pillai et al (1988b) and Katiyar et al (1992) for the chicken skin.…”

“…Evans blue solution was then injected slowly into the wing vein in a dose of 15 mg/kg body weight. The dye was allowed to remain in the circulation up to 30 min, and birds were then exsanguinated Sinha et al, 1987a;Katiyar et al, 1992). An increase in vascular permeability was assessed by the methods outlined below.…”

“…The intensity of the blue colour of the cutaneous lesion was assessed by the technique described for the chicken skin; and the value expressed as 'dyeequivalent' mg/ml (Sinha et al, 1987a;Katiyar et al, 1992).…”
