# Bronchoalveolar Lavage Protocol

 The flexiVent goes beyond traditional resistance and compliance measurements, and captures crucial details about the mechanical properties of conducting airways, terminal airways and parenchyma. The flexiVent achieves the highest sensitivity and reproducibility by precisely controlling experimental conditions.

Learn the steps and procedures required to adequately perform a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) following measurements of respiratory mechanics in mice using the flexiVent systems in our BAL protocol.
