Techniplast® Metabolic Cage Systems

Meticulously engineered cages feature a unique funnel and cone design that effectively separates feces and urine into tubes outside the cage. No urine washover and no chance for urine to enter the feces tube, so separation is immediate and complete. For untainted and reliable samples. All cage parts and stands are autoclavable. Replacement parts available. Cover - Large, vented, keeps animal securely in cage. Can be removed for easy access to animal.Upper Chamber - Made of transparent PC. Surface is smooth, gnaw-proof, noiseless. Cleans easily with warm soapy water or detergent solution.Feeder Chamber - Located outside cage. Size discourages rodent from nesting or sleeping inside.Feed Drawer - PC drawer slides out for easy filling without disturbing animal. Ideal for slurries, liquids or powders. Not designed for food in pellet form. Rear portion helps to catch spilled food to prevent contamination of feces.Feces Collection Tube - Made of non-wetting PMP. Pellets roll down sides of funnel to be collected in tube. Unlocks with single twist from outside of cage without disturbing animal.Urine Collection Tube PMP - Graduated in cubic centimeters. Unlocks from outside cage without disturbing animal. Can be cooled with an ice bath.Lower Chamber PC - Can be removed without disturbing animal. Cleans with warm soapy water or detergent solution. Stand - Stainless Steel stand or rack must be used with any rodent metabolic cage. Stand supports one cage and provides easy access to all parts. 12-cage racks and refrigerated collection racks are also available. All stands and racks are sold separately.Collection Funnel and Separating Cone - Unique design and non-wetting PMP ensure immediate, complete separation of feces and urine.Support Grid - SS grid lets excreta pass through the widely-spaced bars; mouse cage includes mouse-size grid. Grids have handles for easy transport of cage without stand.Water Bottle - Calibrated PC bottle with SS cap and sipper tube.Water Spillage Tube - Collects any water that animals spill. Facilitates accurate collection of fluid intake data.Each cage includes complete assembly and use instructions, replacement parts list and warranty card. Designed for rats, guinea pigs and hamsters. Includes same fluid collection tubes and rings as the smaller rodent cages and the following components sized for larger rodents: upper chamber, water bottle and support, feeder assembly and urine collection tube.

Braintree的鼠标幻影-为Micro-CT扫描仪提供参考标准Micro-CT系统可提供精确，准确和高分辨率的测量结果。这些系统的视野要求适当缩放的QA体模。CIRS 090型MicroMouseTM和091型注水鼠标幻影提供了量化X射线衰减和吸收特性方面的钙和骨密度的工具。羟基磷灰石（HA）是哺乳动物牙齿和骨骼的主要成分，是评估矿物质密度的最合适参考。CIRS将HA与软组织等效的聚合物背景混合在一起，以提供参考值，其HA负荷范围为0 mg / cc至750 mg / cc。羟基磷灰石的晶粒尺寸和棒的均质性已优化，可用于Micro-CT。固态MicroMouse幻影和注水鼠标幻影均包含11种不同矿物含量和尺寸的棒。它们可以像评估全身扫描仪一样用于评估Micro-CT扫描仪。该目标适用于确定对比度的可检测性和估计低对比度的分辨率。在MicroMouse Phantom中，杆嵌入在软组织等效的环氧材料中，该材料的大小和形状均与小型啮齿动物相同。充满水的鼠标幻影在防水的聚碳酸酯外壳中包含11个杆，非常耐用并且耐多种化学物质。091型外壳可轻松填充各种液体，以改变杆和周围液体之间的对比度。090和091型中使用的11根Micro-CT棒也可以作为092型单独购买，以及其他长度，直径和HA装载选项。发送电子邮件以获取更多详细信息。特征：25 mg / cc-750 mg / cc HA目标肺，肌肉和脂肪适用于Micro-CT固体或液体填充
