Incapacitance Meter Test Mice, Rats and Birds
The IITC Incapacitance Test Meter is used for test assessment of pain and or inflammation of the hind limbs on mice and rats. It overcomes the drawbacks of other methods that might cause unnececessary stress or subjectivity on the animal. The technique known as dynamic weight bearing enables the test on both limbs allowing a clean stress free correlation to the paw pressure test. Control and testing can be done on the same animal at the same time.

Aesthesio®, Precise Tactile Sensory Evaluator 20 piece Kit
Touch pressure threshold testing involves the use of nylon monofilaments of
different lengths and increasing diameters. These monofilaments provide controlled
gradients of force to the mechanoreceptors in the skin and can thus be used to
determine pressure detection thresholds. The advantage of monofilament testing is
that it provides quantified and repeatable information about a patient’s detection of
touch. The pattern of sensibility loss reflected by the monofilament testing helps to
identify pathology. -

IITC Plethysmometer Paw Volume Meter for Mice and Rats
IITC’s Paw Volume Meter enables researchers to measure the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory agents and agents to reduce edemic conditions. In use, the paw is inserted into plain water, which contains a special water cell of which the pressure is changed due to the immersion. This pressure change is calibrated in ml and shown on a special electronic monitor. This form of detection eliminates changes due to conductivity alterations at repeated insertions as found on comparable units.

IITC Rodent Restraints
Slings can be used to securely restrain rodents during many procedures. Choice of restraint in many sizes and range of adjustment make the rodent sling a valuable asset to any laboratory setting.
FRAMEPolypropylene base with supports made from stainless steel, one inch thick bass material provides a robust support that does not move. Stainless supports and connectors held with convenient thumbs screws allow for height adjustments. The frame is easily cleaned and dismantles when not in use.
RESTRAINTSFull body restraint is provided with the choice of either a sling suit or sling cover. Both restrainers allow for access to all limbs and the head and tail, all close with Velcro fasteners allowing for a quick and secure restraint and an adjustable fit for individual animals. Sling suits are sold in five sizes according to the weight range of the animals. The rodent sling cover is available in a single size for rats up to 500g. Custom sizes available on request.
Slings can be used to securely restrain rodents during many procedures. Choice of restraint in many sizes and range of adjustment make the rodent sling a valuable asset to any laboratory setting.
Other small animal species may also be restrained using the same frame with suits and slings available for mice and guinea pigs.
