How are mice gavaged?

Jan 19, 2022

The method of catching the mouse is correct. Use the index finger and thumb to pinch the skin of the mouse's neck, press the mouse's tail under the ring finger, and pinch it tightly.

1-2ml syringe and 16-gauge veterinary needle, blunt tip, needle 4-5cm long

Enter from the corner of the rat's mouth, close to the upper jaw and enter the esophagus, the depth of the needle is measured in vitro, generally 2-3cm for mice

Note that there is a trick in the technique. The gavage needle is sent to the throat and the wrist is pressed against the back of the rat's head. Remember not to use violence.
