A method is described for blood collection from the lateral saphenous

vein. This enables rapid sampling, which if necessary can be repeated

from the same site without a need for new puncture wounds. The method is

a humane and practical alternative to cardiac and retro‑orbital puncture,

in species where venepuncture has traditionally been regarded as

problematic.

Plasma biochemical values, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), glucose,

aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and

creatine phosphokinase (CPK), were compared between the samples collected

from orbital sinus, heart and tail vein in mice, rats and hamsters. The

significant higher values of AST, LDH and CPK were shown in samples from

orbital sinus as compared with that from other sites. The blood from

orbital sinus was bleeding by two methods and compared in the plasma

enzyme values. It is suggested that the leakages of these enzymes from

destroyed ocular tissues result in the increase of the plasma enzyme

values.

Abstract: We assessed mortality due to handling and survival of small

mammals that had been anesthetized and then bled through the orbital

sinus during a 1‑year study in southeastern Arizona. Rates of return and

mortality due to handling were not significantly different between

treatment and control for any species. Estimates of survival based on

Cormack‑Jolly‑Seber capture‑recapture models indicated no significant

difference (P lt 0.05) in survival for white‑throated woodrats (Neotoma

albigula) and combined species of mice in the genus Peromyscus. However,

for pocket mice (Chaetodipus) mean rates of survival were significantly

lower for animals that had been bled. Removing samples of blood from wild

rodents appears to have little effect on survival for most species. Lower

survival in pocket mice may be due to the effects of anesthesia or the

combined effects of bleeding and anesthesia on this desert‑adapted

animal.

Evaluation of an anesthetic regimen for retroorbital blood collection

from mice.

Many Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees require anaesthesia of

mice for retroorbital blood collection procedures. Optimal anaesthetic

regimens should provide chemical restraint and adequate analgesia for a

sufficient but otherwise minimal duration. This study was conducted to

evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and practical utility of the general

anaesthetic combination of ketamine and medetomidine with and without the

topical anaesthetic proparacaine. The findings suggest that the

combination of ketamine (76 mg/kg), medetomidine (1 mg/kg), and

proparacaine (a single drop on the eye), and atipamezole (1 mg) for

reversal of anaesthesia is a safe and humane anaesthetic regimen for

retroorbital collection of blood samples from mice. 13 ref.
