ISOcage P system has been designed in order to achieve the safety and protection of an isolator coupled with the advantages of an IVC, in terms of ergonomics, flexibility and density. ISOcage P is an isolator at cage level that allows the carrying out of multiple studies on the same rack, providing strong bioexclusion for maximum animal protection, excluding any possibility of cage-to-cage contamination. It is especially designed for gnotobiotics, germ-free and immunocompromised animals.
Features:
IDEAL BIOEXCLUSION & PROTECTION
- Twin clamps and double gasket self-closing nozzles: ISOcage P is a real airtight, hermetic cage. Once removed from the rack, it remains pressurized for a long time: safety and protection for the animals
- Pressure driven microprocessor based ventilation control: constant high positive pressure to provide safe intra-cage environment
ANIMAL SAFETY
- Two blowers working simultaneously: redundancy in the unfortunate case of a blower failure
- Battery back-up system can provide adequate ventilation for more than 24 hours in case of power failure
- Automatic Visual Docking Indicator and great visibility: operator can immediately see if the cage is properly in place
- Possibility to export data via USB, error recording, on-line help menu, UPS-saver mode, connection to BMS: safety and easy data monitoring
DENSITY AND ERGONOMICS
- ISOcage P allows the carrying out of different studies on the same rack, achieving an IVC-like density
- Large touch screen with user-friendly interface
- Optimal handling and procedures, thanks to the new “open-clamp” locking system
ANIMAL WELFARE
- Air valves placed on the top: no air drafts to minimize anxiety- and stress-induced behaviours. Protection andwelfare for gnotobiotics, germ-free or immunocompromised animals
- The Air Handling Unit provides ventilation without transmitting vibrations to the rack, ensuring standardization of the experiment
LOW RUNNING COSTS
- New low consumption ECM DC-Blowers together with protection-related lower personnel costs reduce the overall system’s running costs
