Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of animal experiment instruments, and particularly relates to a nasal inhalation drug delivery system for mice. Background Art
[0002] At present, mouse models are mostly used in the research of lung diseases. Direct or indirect intervention on lung tissue is a common scientific research method. The direct intervention methods for the lungs mainly include tracheal intubation, tracheotomy, and nasal inhalation drug delivery. Among them, tracheotomy exposes the trachea through an invasive method, and the tissue is closed layer by layer after drug delivery, which first causes trauma to the mice; tracheal intubation injects drugs into the mouse airway under the guidance of a tracheal intubation needle through the oral cavity and naturally diffuses to the lungs. At present, tracheal intubation mostly uses the blind intubation method, which cannot guarantee the intubation success rate. Repeated attempts at intubation will cause laryngeal edema and lead to asphyxiation and death of the mice; nasal inhalation drug delivery is to drop the drug into the mouse nasal cavity and let the mouse inhale the liquid medicine naturally to reach the lungs. Therefore, the nasal inhalation method is currently the drug delivery method that causes the least stress response and trauma to the mice.
[0003] At present, mouse nasal inhalation drug delivery mainly involves anesthetizing the mouse. The experimenter fixes the mouse with one hand and slowly drops the liquid medicine into the mouse nasal cavity with a pipette gun in the other hand. Since the mouse's mouth automatically opens when it is fixed during drug delivery, the mouse reflexively swallows some of the liquid medicine that enters the mouth into the stomach, resulting in a reduction in the actual drug delivery amount to the lungs, an increase in loss, and inaccurate drug delivery amount causing experimental errors.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new mouse nasal inhalation drug delivery device that can fix the mouse and liberate the experimenter's hand for fixing the mouse, and can close the mouse's mouth to reduce drug loss, improve drug delivery accuracy, and increase experimental accuracy.

[0049] Functions and effects of the embodiment
[0050] According to a mouse nasal inhalation drug delivery system provided by this embodiment, because it includes: a fixing device for placing and fixing a mouse; a mouse oral cavity closing device arranged on the fixing device for restraining and closing the oral cavity of the mouse on the fixing device; and a drug delivery channel clamping device arranged on the fixing device for clamping and fixing the drug delivery channel. Among them, when the mouse is fixed on the fixing device and the drug delivery channel is clamped and fixed on the drug delivery channel clamping device, the liquid medicine outlet of the drug delivery channel is located directly above the nasal cavity of the mouse.
[0051] Therefore, the mouse nasal inhalation drug delivery system of this embodiment can fix the mouse, liberate the hands of the experimenter for fixing the mouse, and can close the oral cavity of the mouse to reduce drug loss, improve the drug delivery accuracy, and increase the experimental accuracy.
[0052] Furthermore, the fixing device includes: a base, which is a horizontally arranged plate-like structure; a clamping groove recessed on the base with an upward opening; a fixing table, which is a rectangular plate-like structure, the bottom edge of which is rotatably connected to the base, and the front surface of the fixing table is used for placing and fixing the mouse; and a clamping plate, one end of which is connected to the back surface of the fixing table, and the other end of which can be matched and embedded in the clamping groove, so that the planes of the base and the fixing table are fixed at an angle. Such a setting makes the structure of the fixing device for fixing the mouse more reliable.
[0053] Furthermore, the number of clamping grooves is several, the several clamping grooves are arranged in an array, and the arrangement direction is perpendicular to the bottom edge of the fixing table. One end of the clamping plate is rotatably connected to the back surface of the fixing table and its relative rotation direction is perpendicular to the bottom edge of the fixing table. When the other end of the clamping plate is embedded in different clamping grooves, different angles are formed between the planes of the base and the fixing table and are fixed. Such a setting makes the pitch angle of the fixing device for fixing the mouse adjustable, reducing the cervical fatigue of the operator.
[0054] Furthermore, the fixing device further includes a support plate convexly arranged on the front surface of the fixing table for supporting the lower limbs of the mouse. Such a setting can provide a certain support for the lower limbs of the mouse, reducing the risk of the mouse dying from neck dislocation due to the influence of its own gravity.
[0055] Furthermore, the fixing device further includes fixing grooves. The number of the fixing grooves is 2, which are opened on both sides of the rectangular fixing platform, and their opening directions face the outside of both sides of the fixing platform. When the experimenter places the mouse on the front of the fixing platform, ties the upper limb of the mouse with a thin thread, then bypasses the two fixing grooves and ties them tightly on the back of the fixing platform, the mouse can be fixed on the front of the fixing platform. With such a setting, the mouse can be fixed on the fixing platform conveniently and quickly.
[0056] Furthermore, the mouse oral cavity closing device includes: two screws rotatably arranged at both ends of the other bottom edge of the fixing platform; and a restraint band, both ends of which are wound around the screws. When the mouse is fixed on the front of the fixing platform, the lower jaw of the mouse is lifted by the restraint band, and the screws are rotated to tighten the restraint band wound around them, so as to apply an upward force to the lower jaw of the mouse to close the oral cavity of the mouse. With such a setting, the oral cavity of the mouse can be controlled to close, and it can adapt to different mice and the tightness of controlling the closing of the mouse oral cavity is adjustable.
[0057] Furthermore, the drug delivery channel clamping device includes: a support back plate arranged on the other bottom edge of the fixing platform and coplanar with the fixing platform; and two clamping blocks protruding from the support back plate or the fixing platform, and their extending directions face the front of the fixing platform. There is a certain distance between the two clamping blocks for clamping the drug delivery channel. The support back plate and the two clamping blocks cooperate together to clamp the drug delivery channel above the nasal cavity of the mouse. With such a setting, the drug delivery channel can be fixed and located above the nasal cavity of the mouse, thus freeing both hands and facilitating automatic nasal inhalation drug delivery to the mouse.
[0058] Furthermore, the clamping block includes: a first extension section protruding from the support back plate or the fixing platform and its extending direction faces the front of the fixing platform, and the protruding direction of the first extension section is perpendicular to the plane where the fixing platform is located; and a second extension section arranged on the first extension section and facing upward. With such a setting, when the clamping block clamps the drug delivery channel, the drug delivery channel is not easily detached.
[0059] Furthermore, the support back plate and the fixing platform are integrally formed, the first extension section and the support back plate or the fixing platform are integrally formed, and the first extension section and the second extension section are integrally formed. With such a setting, the firmness of the whole device is increased and it is not easily damaged.
