Purpose: To describe live mouse, anterior chamber constant-pressure perfusion by an approach using feedback-controlled coupling of pressure and flow to maintain a preset pressure. Methods: We established a microperfusion system that maintains a constant preset pressure in the anterior chamber of live mice by automatically regulating the microsyringe pump flow rate with a computer-controlled voltage feedback loop. Perfusion was by single-needle cannulation. We characterized the following in C57BL/6 mice aged 3–4 months in vivo: (i) pressure stability, (ii) pressure and flow rate reproducibility, (iii) total outflow facility, and (iv) anterior segment histology after perfusion. Results: Twenty live mice underwent perfusion. Constant pressure was quickly attained and stably maintained. The coefficient of pressure variation over time during perfusion at a preset pressure was |
