I wanted to induce bacterila infection to the mmice and we have alwaays performed it in normal conditions by restraining the mouse but would it make a difference when we give small dose of isoflurane and then inject via tail vein?
For your personal ease, you can use isoflurane. However, it is know that anesthetics have (mild) immunosupressive traits. The next question is ofcourse if this is relevant towards your research.
