Title: Histologic effects of Amipaque (metrizamide) and various contrast media on mouse peritoneum. Author: Berner A, Johansen JG. Journal: Invest Radiol; 1978; 13(2):161-2. PubMed ID: 659088. Abstract: The histologic effects of Amipaque and various commonly used contrast media on mouse peritoneum were studied by intraperitoneal injections of Amipaque 370 mg I/ml and 170 mg I/ml, Conray 300 mg I/ml, Conray Meglumine 282 mg I/ml, Urografin 60% and 76%, Gastrografin and barium sulfate. Amipaque and the other water-soluble media cause no deleterious effects, whereas barium sulfate evokes granulomatous inflammatory reaction. Amipaque is suitable for gastrointestinal studies when leakage into the peritoneal cavity is expected.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
