Mimolette Rat Model
- Saphenous collection
- Endotracheal intubation
- Cardiac puncture
(Mimolette sounds french. There is a heavy cajun french culture in Louisianna. LSU is in the SEC = Saphenous, Endotracheal intubation, and cardiac puncture) I know that’s a bit of a stretch but maybe it will help you!
