Pharmacology

CAL- Computer Assisted Learning software for replacing animal experiments in Pharmacology education.

Ideal for students in Medical, Veterinary, and other life science disciplines, this CD-Rom contains ExPharm, which simulates animal experiments in pharmacology, such as Effects of drugs on the frog heart, rabbit eye, and frog esophagus; Histamine assay on the guinea pig ileum; and Frog rectus abdominus in vitro.

Includes Microlabs, a series of modules that simulate the effects of drugs on isolated tissues in vitro and the effects on whole animals in vivo. Programs in Microlabs include Anesthesia of the Rat; Mouse Behavior; Heart Rate and BP in vivo, Guinea pig ileum in vitro; Phrenic nerve-diaphragm in vitro; and Sciatic nerve-anterior tibialis muscle preparation in vitro.

Also contains EPHeart and PharmaTutor.
