Induction chambers made from acrylic glass and with fan system
|
A simple design with a snap-on/snap-off lid. Included is a metal frame support for easy cleaning. The induction chamber is made from premium material. The metal frame support is easy to remove and made from stainless steel material.
The fresh and waste anesthetic gas inlet and outlet adapters are easy to connect. The gas outlet adaptor can be connected to the EVAC tubing for F/AIR Filter or to any scavenge system. Optional the induction chamber is available with an integrated ventilator/fan connected to a 12V / 1A 110- 240 VAC power source. The fan will immediately scavenge the anesthesia gas with an on/off switch on the cable. This safety feature helps to reduce the amount of anesthetic gas which could be a hazard for the user.

Imaging chamber
The chamber is designed to be used with most optical imaging systems. The body of the chamber is made from black acrylic material.
The viewing port is manufactured from an optically clear, scratch resistant cell cast acrylic sheet. Light transmission is 98 % and the viewing port is field replaceable should it become damaged from use.
A silicone gasket positively seals the chamber against leaks and the single latch allows investigators to open and close of the chamber with one hand. Three dividers are provided with the chamber to allow imaging of up to four rodents at one time. The chamber comes equip- ped with two of our standard 15 mm i.d. X 19 mm o.d. induction chamber adapters or optionally with a single Coaxial Flow Induction Chamber Adapter.
Adapters can be installed on the rear or sides of the chamber per your specifications

Special Induction chamber for tail vein injection for mice
The University of Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany Dr. med. vet. Sebastian Gehrig and in co-operation with the Society for the Promotion of Research at the Albert-Ludwigs University and the University of Freiburg, developed in 2011 a special induction chamber for tail vein injection for mice.

Introduction
After the tail is led through the intended opening, a contra pressure to the foamed plastic will help to establish a vein rope. This means, that the injection procedure will be clearly simplified. After that, it‘s possible to handle the tail vein without any further problem. Usual procedures, such as warming-up the tail are not necessary anymore.
Advantage of the Induction chamber
By the low volume size of the induction chamber the anesthesia enters fast and stressless. Another advantage is certainly the accuracy and simplicity of the injection in the tail vein. The injection with anesthesia in mice provides furthermore identical test terms and contributes comparable and reproduceable results. The number of the unsuc- cessful attempts will lower considerably. Also the time where radioactive material must be handled for the user. Another excellent advantage is the time reduction for these standard procedures.
Sizes of the Induction chambers
Body part grey: 100 x 160 x 25 mm
Chamber in acrylic material 60 x 120 x 50 mm
Size chamber inside 80 x 140 x 40 mm
The Induction chamber is made from a very special PMMA
acrylic material (1 cm thick) and has a determing advantage of the addtional ray protection
for the user of - and – radiation (no y– radiation)
Order-Nr. PS-0351-SIK Tail vein induction chamber complete with anesthesia hose inlet and blue evacuation hose for connection to a F/AIR Filter or evacuation fan system
