Ammonia Levels in Animal Care Systems Cages in Higher Humidity Conditions
Animal Care System’s revolutionary approach to individual cage ventilation employs a unique one-pass low-velocity linear air technology which eliminates the introduction of air turbulence and high air velocity, while ensuring maximum cage air quality at a low airflow. Cage ammonia and other environmental parameters were measured in all three Animal Care Systems rack types (Optimice,…

What is the Best Airflow and Airflow Patterns in an Individually Ventilated Cage?
THE FIRST INDIVIDUALLY VENTILATED CAGING SYSTEMS (IVC) were brought onto the laboratory animal market about 40 years ago. Those systems then and now are known as forced-air systems: using motors they force air into and out of the cage through small holes, usually smaller than the size of a small coin. This results in high…
