Pneumonia Animal Model (CAT#: STEM-AE-0061-WXH)

Introduction

Pneumonia is an inflammatory condition of the lung primarily affecting the small air sacs known as alveoli. Symptoms typically include some combination of productive or dry cough, chest pain, fever, and difficulty breathing.
The mouse is the most frequently encountered model of pneumonia. And direct instillation into the trachea or intranasal inoculation of the bacterial suspension are the techniques used to induce the infection in most of the preclinical models of pneumonia .
