Roles of Isolated Tissue Preparation in Medical Physiology.

12 PAGES (6508 WORDS) Physiology Seminar



ABSTRACT

Isolated organs or tissues are body parts, organs, systems or tissues separated from the body and placed in an artificial nutrient medium similar to blood

plasma in salt composition and osmotic pressure and temporarily retaining their principal functional properties. They are used to study certain aspects of organ activity, elucidate the action of medicinal 
substances and poisons, provides researchers with convenient biological models that are independent of the systemic influences of the in vivo 
preparations as well as in a controlled environment without the complications of an intact animal model.This study highlights some of the important application areas of isolated tissue 
preparation in the study of the possible cause, origin and history of some disease conditions, pharmaceuticals, molecular biology, food science, forensics
as well as toxicology.
