Metastatic Amoebiasis Model
Product Code : JC-BE-6229
The Metastatic Amoebiasis Model (SKU JC-BE-6229) is an amoebic liver abscess model that shows how invasive trophozoites of Entamoeba histolytica leave the colon. It shows them invading the mucosa and submucosa, entering the portal venous circulation and reaching the liver, where a single large abscess commonly forms in the right lobe, with rarer spread to the lung, brain and pericardium. It also covers tissue destruction by proteolytic enzymes and diagnosis by serology and imaging. JaincoLab manufactures it in Ambala, India.
Specifications
