Description of a rat model of polymicrobial abdominal sepsis mimicking human colon perforation

Abstract Objective Standard rodent sepsis models as cecal ligation and puncture models (CLP) or cecal ligation and incision models (CLI) are frequently not suited experiments, mainly because they lack surgical repair, and they are difficult to control for severity. The colon ascendens stent peritoni...
