Gas anesthesia with Isoflurane is quickly becoming the standard method of general anesthesia for rats and mice in biomedical research. The advantages of using gas anesthesia for in vivo examinations are numerous.
- Less complications than from injectable agents
- Allows for longer exam duration
- Easier administration with quick recovery
- Readily incorporated into existing procedures
- Level plane of anesthesia
- Reduced animal handling for less stress
- No Schedule II drugs
These rodent gas masks fits mice and rats of all sizes, and they are versatile for a wide variety of applications. The OC gas masks allow you access to the eyes and head of the rodent while sealing the nose and mouth. The gas masks provides stability of the animal for examinations and surgery, and they can be easily incorporated in existing examination procedures. The waste-line connects to gravity or vacuum filters, and swiveling ports allow for greater flexibility in positions. The are easily adapted for stereotaxic applications.
Thanks to the anatomical face mask design, you have head to tail access. The face mask reduces the technicians exposure to gas by sequestering and filtering waste, minimizing dead space and leakage. You can reduce rodent stress by limiting handling required when using injectable anesthesia. By choosing these gas masks with isoflurane and thereby reducing the use of Schedule II drugs, you can simplify your lab management. Setting-up and changing masks is simple, and the swivel adapters allow you to make adjustments quickly and even modify the mask for stereotaxic uses. Gas anesthesia reduces recovery time, making for a faster and more efficient lab.
