Abstract
Studies of the local secretory immune response in ferrets after infection with influenza virus necessitate the frequent sampling of undiluted tracheal secretions. A surgical technique is described for the construction of a subcutaneous tracheal pouch in the ferret and for sampling undiluted tracheal secretions at daily to weekly intervals during a period of many months. This technique is applicable to other species.
