Measurement of hydraulic conductivity in isolated arterioles of rat brain cortex

A new method for quantification of arteriolar hydraulic conductivity from isolated rat brain vessels is described. The volume flux of water per unit surface area across the arteriole wall was assessed from measurements of silicon oil drop movement within an occluded vessel at 2-3 pressures.
