Muscle samples were taken from the superficial part of the semitendinosus muscle of four standardbred horses to compare the effects of three different fixation procedures on fiber size and capillarity. Infiltration fixation in an extended position of the muscle was compared to immersion fixation and infiltration fixation in a flexed position of the limb. The capillary length density was used to estimate muscle capillarity. Infiltration fixation was found to be a viable alternative to perfusion fixation of muscles for morphometry of fiber size and capillary length density allowing muscle tissue fixation at a defined sarcomere length without fiber kinking.
从四匹标准赛马的半腱肌浅表部位采集肌肉样本，以比较三种不同固定程序对纤维大小和毛细血管密度的影响。将肌肉伸展位的浸润固定与肢体屈曲位的浸泡固定和浸润固定进行比较。用毛细血管长度密度来估计肌肉的毛细血管密度。结果发现，浸润固定是肌肉灌注固定的一种可行替代方法，可用于纤维大小和毛细血管长度密度的形态测量，能使肌肉组织在特定肌节长度下固定，且不会出现纤维扭结。
