Complex systems with numerous components increase contamination risks and complicate testing procedures, while specimen collection often requires disturbing the test subjects, leading to extended acclimation periods.
Our metabolic cage system combines innovative linear diffusion technology with a streamlined design, offering superior specimen separation while simplifying research protocols for both individual and multi-unit testing programs.
Linear Diffuser Mechanism: Directs animal waste via collection funnel, with solids traveling along 50-degree inclined ridges to the front collection vessel.
Precision Separation: Liquid waste flows through grooves and down the diffuser's incline into the urine port and collection vessel.
Contamination Control: Deflector gate prevents urine splashes from contaminating fecal samples.
Multi-Species Design: Proven effectiveness for both mice and rats with simple feeder and floor grid adaptations.
Durable Components: Built with polycarbonate and stainless steel for superior durability.
Disposable Options: Styrene separator components available for toxic or radioactive materials.
Compact Design: Standard 12" wide x 15" deep x 25" high dimensions.
Simplified Architecture: Just 15 components compared to typical 20+ piece systems.
Efficient Storage: Stainless steel racks accommodate 8, 10, or 12 cages.
Robust Construction: Heli-arc welded stainless steel with removable shelves.
Mobile Design: Four 5" diameter poly-loc-poly casters, two with locking brakes.
Custom Options: Available configurations for both metabolic cages and racks.
Our Metabolism Units deliver unprecedented accuracy in specimen collection while streamlining research protocols. Whether conducting individual studies or managing large-scale testing programs, these systems provide reliable separation with maximum operational efficiency.
