Figure 5

Shows the experimental methodology and the separated core. (A). Isolated guinea pig heart installed on the Langendorff apparatus showing the front view with all the electrodes and probes in place. (B). The usual procedure required at least 30 min for cardiac perfusion stabilization, followed by four periods of 15 min each for exposure to baseline and vehicle in three escalating doses.CPP, LVP, ECG and MAP were continuously monitored and recorded throughout the study. The horizontal bars show that the heart is beating freely and automatically, except slowly. (Guo L, Dong Z, Guthrie H.
