Organ bath. The excised mucosal tissue is mounted with villous surface outermost on the sintered tip of the hollow tube at the centre of the organ bath. The focal plane of the objective can be adjusted to lie at different points along the axes of the projecting villi. The circular weir allows carboxygenated HBS superfusate to overflow into the outer compartment with minimal turbulence.
