UNO Euthanasia Unit for IVC Cage
Only available in Belgium
Features
A docking station, enabling human- and animal-welfare-compliant, intuitive and reliable euthanasia for mice in their home IVC. Just dock your IVC cage into the unit and the euthanasia process will start.
The UNO Euthanasia Unit for IVC-Cage has to be connected to an electrial wall outlet AND to a CO 2 cylinder or in-house CO2 distribtion system. The inlet pressure to the unit needs to be set at 0,5 bar via an externaol pressure regulator (not included).
When the IVC cage is correctly docked the unit ensures an even distribution of CO 2 and thus a homogeneously increasing concentration of CO2 within the IVC cage. If the IVC cage is prematurely removed from the unit, the gas supply stops and the cycle ends prematurely.
The mice are euthanised in accordance with the AVMA Guidelines for the Euthanasia of Animals (2013), the German Animal Protection Act and Animal Welfare Regulation Governing Experimental Animals (2013).
The cycle begins when the CO2 starts flowing into the unit and lasts 6 minutes to completion.
The UNO Euthanasia Unit for IVC-Cage is available for the following IVC cages:
- Allentown XJ
- Allentown Nexgen
- Tecniplast Blueline 1145
