INDIVIDUALLY VENTILATED CAGES

TECNIPLAST HAS BEEN INVOLVED FOR MORE THAN 60 YEARS IN THE FIELD OF LAB ANIMAL RESEARCH AND IN ITS INNOVATIONS TO ACHIEVE THE CHALLENGING GOALS SET BY THE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH. THE ORIGINAL NEED TO HAVE JUST A “CONTAINER” FOR RODENTS HAS EVOLVED OVER TIME TO MEET THE NEED OF A RANGE OF PRACTICAL, SCIENTIFIC REQUIREMENTS. THESE BIO-EXCLUSION, SEPARATION OF SMALL GROUPS OF ANIMALS, SPACE SAVING, ERGONOMICS, PRACTICALITY OF USE, AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, ANIMAL AND HUMAN WELFARE. COMPLIANCE WITH THESE CRITERIA IS ESSENTIAL IN ORDER TO AVOID GREEN LINE UNDESIRABLE VARIABLES AND ACHIEVE RELIABLE SCIENTIFIC...

FOR MICE EMERALD LINE FOR RATS EMERALD LINE EMERALD IS THE NEW, REVOLUTIONARY, INDIVIDUALLY VENTILATED CAGE. IT PROVIDES LEADING PERFORMANCE FOR ANIMAL AND OPERATOR PROTECTION, ERGONOMICS AND WELFARE. THANKS TO SUCCESSFUL INNOVATIONS SUCH AS VISION+, IN-RICHMENT, SMARTOP AND ALL-IN-ONE-RACK, EMERALD BRINGS HOUSING STANDARDS TO A HIGHER LEVEL 5

EMERALD LINE · AMOUSEMENTS MOUSE HOUSE The MOUSE HOUSE provides a complex three-dimensional environment, within standard laboratory caging. It incorporates entrances, a shelf and a large nesting area. Its design maximises the use of floor area and encourages mice to zone their cage space. MOUSE LOFT/ POUCH LOFT The MOUSE LOFT is suspended environmental enrichments that create a more complex 3D environment in the cage. The MOUSE POUCH LOFT is a multi-purpose mouse loft designed for cages equipped with the Automatic Watering System. Its 2-in-1 design offers the advantage of being used as an enrichment...

FOR MICE SEALSAFE® PLUS FOR RATS SEALSAFE® PLUS FOR RATS SEALSAFE® PLUS THE SEALSAFE PLUS, ALSO KNOWN AS THE GREEN LINE, IS THE WORLDWIDE RECOGNIZED IVC STANDARD. IT PROVIDES OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE IN TERMS OF PROTECTION, ERGONOMICS AND DENSITY. 17

GREEN LINE The Sealsafe® PLUS range of IVC products features a PATENTED cage design, consisting of a soft silicone gasket that protrudes radially all around the cage base rim. The perfect sealing is simply achieved by placing the top on the cage body, through the radial interference between gasket and cage top. Consequently, the vertical compression (commonly provided by the use of latches) of the silicone gasket between cage base and top is not required: ■ no latches for the best ergonomics ■ no need for latches to achieve excellent containment and high protection PROTECTION FOR OPERATORS AND...

ANIMAL WELFARE ■ Air inlet and outlet valves in the top: no air draft at animal level, avoiding risk of stress and heat loss, as reported in the scientific literature ■ Stand-alone Air Handling Unit: Easy, Smart, Sky and Wi Flow provide safe ventilation without transmitting vibrations to the rack, ensuring standardization of the experiment. The system is independently certified by TÜV ERGONOMICS ■ No latches for a faster cage change, while protection is always ensured by the patented cage sealing; ideal for Automation ■ Half length wire bar lid: easy access for a quicker cage change, minimizing...

GREEN LINE · IVCs FOR MICE GM500 ■ DGM rack and GM500 cage have been designed in order to provide maximum visibility, improving the ease, the speed and the quality of daily room checks. 80 cages (8w x 10h), single sided 108 cages (6w x 9h), double sided 120 cages (6w x 10h), double sided 72 cages (8w x 9h), single sided 126 cages (7w x 9h), double sided 140 cages (7w x 10h), double sided 144 cages (8w x 9h), double sided UNI-HAND CAGE BODY 70 cages (7w x 10h), single sided 63 cages (7w x 9h), single sided 60 cages (6w x 10h), single sided 54 cages (6w x 9h), single sided 160 cages (8w x 10h),...

DIGITAL READY THE DGM RACK IS FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH STATE-OF-THE-ART REVOLUTIONARY TECHNOLOGIES. ■ DVC® system uses a non-disruptive capacitive-based sensor board externally located under the standard individually ventilated home cage to collect data on spontaneous animal activity within the cage every 250 milliseconds, 24/7. The sensor board was made up of 12 capacitive-based planar sensing electrodes that measured changes in capacitance as animals moved across the cages and generate different activity metrics for overall cage activity. Thanks to its effortless plug&play essence, you can easily...
