Intervertebral disc degeneration is a significant contributor to back pain and a leading cause of disability worldwide. Numerous animal models of intervertebral disc degeneration exist. We demonstrate an ovine model of intervertebral disc degeneration, utilizing a drill bit, which achieves a consistent disc injury and reproducible level of disc degeneration.

This protocol describes performing a craniectomy using a high-speed pneumatic drill on a 3-month-old Danish Landrace pig. The access is made through the frontal bone and reveals the ventral dura mater and underlying cerebral hemispheres. This procedure allows for access to a large portion of the pig brain.

Cranial windows have become a ubiquitously implemented surgical technique to allow for intravital imaging in transgenic mice. This protocol describes the use of a surgical robot that performs semi-automated bone drilling of cranial windows and can help reduce surgeon-to-surgeon variability and partially mitigate thermal blood-brain barrier damage.

Here we present a method to stabilize sternal fractures by using locked titanium plates in a low profile design. Performing subperiosteal dissection along the sternum while reducing the fracture, using depth limited drilling, and fixing the plates provides a safe surgical way.
FAQs
The rechargeable battery supplies electrical energy to an electric motor, which produces rotation. Gearing transfers that motion as torque to the chuck, while the chuck holds the selected bit or attachment. This sequence converts stored battery power into controlled mechanical action at the working material, allowing the tool to perform tasks such as cutting, fastening, or preparation.
The trigger and clutch regulate how the cordless drill applies motion and force. Trigger control adjusts the operating speed, while the clutch regulates the force delivered through the rotating system. Together, these controls help match the drill's mechanical output to the task, whether the attachment is being used for fastening, cutting, or material preparation.
Gearing determines how motor rotation is transferred to the chuck as torque. This transfer allows the drill to apply controlled mechanical force rather than relying on the motor's rotation alone. In research settings, that control supports different preparation tasks and helps the same battery-powered tool accommodate drill bits or specialized attachments.
Its rechargeable battery removes the need for a fixed power supply during use. That portable design can improve mobility and access when researchers prepare materials or equipment away from a permanent power source. The drill still provides regulated rotation through its motor, gearing, trigger, and clutch, but the energy source is carried with the tool.
A basic workflow is to select the required bit or specialized attachment, secure it in the chuck, and use the trigger and clutch to regulate rotation and force during the task. The intended work may involve preparing sampling equipment, creating openings in experimental materials, or supporting specimen and tissue preparation in laboratory or field settings.
In biology, the tool is useful when researchers need a portable way to prepare sampling equipment, create openings in experimental materials, or operate specialized attachments. Its battery-powered mobility can support both field and laboratory work, particularly where access to a fixed power supply is limited or where efficient preparation improves the workflow.
Supported tasks include preparation of sampling equipment, opening creation in experimental materials, and specimen or tissue preparation with specialized attachments. These uses do not depend on one biological procedure; instead, the drill provides controlled rotation for physical preparation steps. Its relevance comes from combining portable operation with adjustable speed and force.
Using the tool can improve mobility, efficiency, and access during physical preparation activities. Researchers can carry the power source with the drill, apply controlled rotation through the chuck, and use different bits or attachments for the material at hand. In biology, these features support preparation work without requiring a fixed power supply.
