OptiMice II IVC Mouse System

OptiMice II is a state-of-the-art IVC that provides the greatest animal density on the market: 110 cages in 1 square meter. It is backward compatible with existing OptiMice cages and still houses rodents in the best possible environmental conditions.

OptiMice II relies on convection-assisted, low-velocity, one-pass airflow through each cage provides animals with the gentle ventilation necessary to ensure maximum comfort in an ideal, low-stress living and breeding environment — the same groundbreaking airflow technology as the original OptiMice. And because OptiMice II also doesn’t rely on motors or blowers, the holding rooms are free of noises, vibrations, and odors.

OptiMice IVC mouse cages are easy to change, clean, and maintain. They have internal, external water bottles, water bag and auto-water options. A variety of accessories are available to accommodate various experiments and increase animal welfare.

This upgraded unique IVC mouse system is trusted by scientists, veterinarians, managers, and technicians worldwide for its proven ability to optimize research while protecting caretakers and providing an ideal microenvironment for the mice.
