The complete assembly may be removed to facilitate the conduct of in-life investigations.

All rat/ mouse equipment is standardly available in a range of sizes.

However should your size not be mentioned above, you may always call us for

information on custom made products.

Dermal Inserts; (for dermal / topical applications); For the conduct of studies where test articles are dermally applied, we supply an insert for rodent jackets. The insert provides a non-occlusive covering for the application site, reducing the possibility of oral ingestion, while allowing in-life investigations to be carried out with ease. Different options are available depending on your specific requirements.	Animal	Code
