I don care how much water is being perfused, why can I just use standard resistors which give a perfusion rate of 0.6ml/minute for all applications?

Use of this flow rate for smaller diameter manometric channels (less than 0.6mm) generates a very high back pressure because of the resistance of the manometric channel to such a relatively high flow rate. This makes it impossible to make technically adequate pressure measurements with both the sleeve and sideholes.
