Transcardial injection and vascular distribution of microalgae in Xenopus laevis as means to supply the brain with photosynthetic oxygen
Summary: Oxygen in vertebrates is generally provided through respiratory organs and blood vessels. This protocol describes transcardial injection, vascular distribution, and accumulation of phototrophic microalgae in the brain of Xenopus laevis tadpoles. Following tissue isolation, oxygen dynamics a...
