Contributing to the reduction of the number of experimental animals! A model for training basic techniques on rats.
At Natsume Manufacturing, a manufacturer of animal experimentation equipment, we have developed and are selling the rat model "NATSUME RAT" for training in animal experimentation techniques. When applying various experimental procedures to laboratory animals, it is essential to first immobilize the animals accurately and perform operations suitable for each experimental purpose. However, there are concerns that beginners who are not accustomed to handling animals may cause accidents, such as being bitten by the animals or letting them escape, if they suddenly handle them. This product can be used to achieve the 3Rs for animals through improved techniques and to reduce anxiety and accidents for experimenters through training. 【Trainable Techniques】 ■ Restraint ■ Oral administration ■ Tracheal intubation ■ Tail vein administration ■ Tail vein blood collection *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
