UNO Metabolic cages for mouse, rat or guinea pig.
The UNO Metabolic cages are equipped with a unique system for the separated collection of faeces and urine. Design and finish are such that the animal has a maximum of comfort. Maintenance is efficient and fast. The stainless steel metabolic cages can be de-contaminated from isotope-testing. This is not possible with plastic metabolic cages. Every unit comes complete with cage, adjustable feed passage, feed bowl, faeces and urine collection system and drinking bottle holder.
