简介：
Overview
This study presents a device that mimics Ding's roll method to establish a rat model of skeletal muscle injury. The protocol includes hematoxylin-eosin staining for pathology observation and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for serum damage marker detection.
Key Study Components
Area of Science
- Neuroscience
- Musculoskeletal Disorders
- Animal Models
Background
- Tuina is a traditional Chinese therapeutic technique.
