In this study, we present a protocol for cortisol extraction from the fin and jawbone of sturgeon species. Fin and jawbone cortisol levels were further examined by comparing two washing solvents followed by ELISA assays. This study piloted the feasibility of jawbone cortisol as a novel stress indicator.

Particle Image Velocimetry Investigation of Hemodynamics via Aortic Phantom

Jihun Kang¹, Hojin Ha¹

¹Interdisciplinary Program in Biohealth-Machinery Convergence Engineering, Kangwon National University

The present protocol describes particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements performed to investigate the sinus flow through the in vitro setup of the transcatheter aortic valve (TAV). The hemodynamic parameters based on velocity are also determined.
