L-ARGININE PREVENTS ISCHEMIC INJURY IN EXPLANTED RAT INTESTINAL REGIONS IN AN EX VIVO PERFUSION MODEL

Background: The small intestine is one of the most sensitive organs to ischemia. L-arginine has been shown to reduce damage from ischemia and reperfusion injury. We hypothesize that explanted intestinal segments from rats will demonstrate reduced susceptibility to ischemic injury when perfused with...
