Animal Model of Intradermal Infection
Description
This template was adapted from the original submission. Edits were made to enhance scientific accuracy, optimal usability and/or to meet industry-leading design standards for science communication.
The animal model of intradermal infection offers the opportunity to study physiological processes resulting from an infectious procedure. In this model, the bacterial load is determined by spectrophotometry. Colonies of the microorganism are suspended in sterile saline. An absorbance of 0.135 to 660 nm (nanometers) is required to achieve the amount of 108 CFU (colony forming units) of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Intradermal infection is carried out in the animals' ears.
