Now you can ensure that your laboratory rodents are humanely euthanized without disrupting your laboratory workflow. Introducing the Quietek, the only affordable, fully-automated device specifically designed to comply with 2013 AVMA guidelines.
Adheres to Stringent New Guidelines: The new 2013 AVMA Guidelines for Euthanasia of Animals state that the flow rate for lab rodent C02 euthanasia systems should displace 30% to 70% of the chamber or cage volume/min. Prefilled chambers are now unacceptable. The NIH requires all new research plans and renewals to be evaluated using these guidelines.
KEY BENEFITS
• Easy compliance: The Quietek seamlessly integrates into your existing workflow with no additional training required.
• Prevents errors: The recommended gas rate is administered appropriately, every time. Use the key lock to prevent settings from being changed.
• Consistent: The Quietek eliminates variation in CO2 induction conditions which can change tissue characteristics. A run timer allows you to document conditions for each animal.
• Humane: Fully adjustable within recommended parameters to ensure that ethical standards are maintained.
