EquaFlow Rat Nose Cone

The Equaflow Rat Nose Cone is ideal for rats up to 500 g in mass, but will also work with mice at the 20 g level.  While it is mostly used in benchtop settings, the triangular geometry of the nose cone make it ideal for in vivo optical imaging along the diagonal of a field of view for larger specimens.  The on-board magnets ensure stable placement on the included metal plate.  Large magnetic positioners also included. Additional attributes include:

• Ergonomic: Animals lay in natural position.
• Self-Scavenging: Integrated vacuum ring eliminates harmful waste gas exposure.
• Simplified: No need for latex aperture noted in NRB nose cones.
• Magnetized: Firmly grips to a benchtop base plate.
• Multi-Purpose: Use on bench top or within a macro optical imaging systems.
