The Innocage^® BSL Mouse is the only system that provides a new cage at every change providing peace of mind and guaranteeing sterility.

CAGE FEATURES:

• HEPA-FILTERED
  Single use HEPA filters in the cage lid secure the Innocage® BSL Mouse exhaust and supply ports.
  By selecting a negative pressure setting on the Innorack® BSL Mouse or Innoslim® digital controller, full cage level Bio-containment is achieved.
  
  The cage-level exhaust HEPA filter also protect a vent at the rear of the cage to ensure the animals will survive in the case of a power failure. It also pre-filters the exhaust air before it enters the rack ventilation system.


• AIRTIGHT SEALS
  The Innocage® BSL Mouse lid snaps onto the cage bottom to form an airtight seal while a disposable adhesive gasket seals the interface between the cage and Aquavive^®, our disposable water bottle.


• SIZED FOR 5 MICE
  Innocage^® BSL Mouse comfortably accommodates 5 mice. EURO IIstandard compatible.


• SIMPLIFIED PROCESSES
  The Innocage^® BSL Mouse change procedure is simplified to accommodates BSL requirements.
  The Innocage^® BSL Mouse is disposable and comes irradiated; it eliminates the labor-intensive, costly and dirty process of washing and sterilizing contaminated cages.
  The cages are simply bagged and sealed under the hood and incinerated or autoclaved. Once autoclaved, cages can be disposed of in the standard waste stream (for most applications).


• COST EFFECTIVE
  By eliminating labor, utilities and equipment costs associated with washing and sterilizing, the Innocage^® IVC Mouse substantially reduces your animal housing costs.


• STACKABLE FOR EASY STORAGE
  The Innocage^® IVC Mouse is designed to nest densely with 100 sets measuring only 36" tall, dramatically reducing storage space
