    Study Notes

    Methods and Procedures

    • Hypoxic Hypoxia:

      • Administer a small amount of sodium lime (5g) to a mouse in a sealed bottle.
      • Observe and record the mouse's general condition, respiratory rate (per 10 seconds), depth, skin and mucous membrane color.
      • Seal the bottle tightly and monitor every 3 minutes until the mouse dies.
      • Record the survival duration.
      • Open the mouse's abdomen to examine the color of the blood and liver.
    • Hemic Hypoxia

      • CO Poisoning:

        • Place a mouse in a bottle.
        • Observe and record general condition, respiratory rate, depth, and skin/mucosa color.
        • Introduce 5ml of Carbon Monoxide (CO) into the bottle.
        • Seal the bottle immediately.
        • Begin recording the time and observe until the mouse dies.
        • Document the survival duration.
        • Open the abdomen of the deceased mouse to examine the color of the blood and liver.
      • Sodium Nitrite Poisoning:

        • Observe two mice for normal indicators.
        • Inject one mouse with 0.3 ml sodium nitrite intraperitoneally (IP) to avoid liver damage; inject the other with saline water IP.
        • Immediately inject methylene blue (0.3 ml) into one mouse, and saline to the other.
        • Record the survival time.
        • Open the abdomen to examine the color of the blood and liver.
    • Control Group:

      • Observe a healthy mouse.
      • Kill the mouse by cervical dislocation.
      • Open the abdomen to examine the color of the blood and liver.
