		TAIL FLICK ANALGESIA METERS Measure latency and/or temperature threshold to detect the properties of narcotic and strong non-narcotic drugs on both mice and rats. A built-in Timer is automatically stopped when the animals’ tail flicks out of the beam of light. The overhead halogen light source is a pre-focused 4X6mm stimulation area at the end of the attached tail groove that has the sensor built in for automatic tail flick detection. If the animal does not flick his tail within the entered cut-off time the light beam shuts off automatically avoiding tissue damage. A built-in timer displays the reaction time in 0.01 second increments. Manual override of all timer functions is possible. The tail groove is a non-metallic material to avoid unnecessary conditioning. The unit can be controlled by the front panel or footswitch controls: Start, Stop and Reset of test. Shutters are a thing of the past, this unit eliminates the need for shutters due to the constant “ON” of the light source.
		ANIMAL RESTRAINERS Used with the noninvasive blood pressure systems for mice and rats they can also be used for tail vein injections or other studies where the animal needs to be restrained. They are constructed of sturdy clear, 1/4” wall acrylic. They have an adjustable head gate and the end plate is removable by snaps. This allows the animal to “walk-in” as opposed to the traditional method of bootstrap holders where the animal is physically forced into the restrainer backwards. The backward forcing of animals causes severe trauma. Seven different sizes; the weight range is from neonate rats and adult mice up to 1,000 gram rats. Only a mild soap and water solution is to be used to clean the restrainers no ammonia based products should be used.
		WARMING CHAMBERS Model 29-SSP is a basic system that allows testing of a single animal at a time. This is a non-invasive tail cuff method. The cuff has a photoelectric sensor with light source built into one unit. The clear acrylic lid allows complete visuals. the base holds a "whisper" fan, which comforts the animal(s). CE
