Head-Nose Exposure TowersModular Configuration: We offer a range of Head-Nose exposure towers specifically designed for inhalation studies in rodents and large laboratory animals, like dogs or non-human primates. These towers feature a modular design, allowing researchers to configure the system for studies involving 8 to 96 animals simultaneously. Large animal towers offer adaptability, allowing exposure and real-time individual concentration analysis for up to 4 animals at a time. Flow-Through Design: The towers employ a sophisticated flow-pass design that guarantees uniform distribution of test substances throughout the exposure unit and avoiding an exhaled air rebreathing. This ensures consistent exposure across all animals within the system, minimizing confounding variables and enhancing data quality. Environmental Monitoring: Beyond exposure control, our towers offer the option to integrate environmental sensors for real-time monitoring of critical parameters. These sensors measure temperature, humidity, oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) levels, and pressure. This monitoring plays a vital role in maintaining experiment integrity and optimizing animal welfare. |

NEW Table Top SystemIntroducing new Head-Nose exposure unit that fits size requests and budget constraints. Its modular design meets diverse experimental needs. The compact system seamlessly integrates within existing fume hoods, facilitating efficient exhaust management and exposure control. This capability is particularly valuable for studies utilizing volatile or hazardous test substances. Our Table Top system’s modularity extends to its scalable capacity, accommodating studies with 8 to 26 rodents. This flexibility allows researchers to tailor the exposure environment to the specific requirements of their investigation. Additionally, the lower internal volume minimizes the amount of test substance required for effective exposure, promoting cost-efficiency during studies. Modular design ensures a streamlined and time-saving setup process, allowing researchers to initiate studies more efficiently. Streamline preclinical inhalation studies with modular design, high-precision exposure, and efficient substance utilization. |
