Highest Mouse IVC Cage Density in the Industry

Optimice Rack, Rack-Mounted Avidity/Edstrom Valves complete with two 6-foot hoses, 100 rack mounted Avidity/Edstrom valves, cages not included

Recommendations: This rack has a 100 cage capacity. Typically customers will order 140 cages in order to have enough cages available for cage change out. Some Optimice/Optirat GenII Standard Bottle and Cap  C79122P should be ordered if water bottle usage is also planned for some or all of the cages. We also recommend purchasing our Blockparty enrichment cages C79110PBPDF and connecting tubes C79BP050 for some or all of the cages to provide enrichment by increasing cage complexity and living space.
