Description
The Instech Syringe Pump
The first and only syringe pump designed for lab animal infusion.
Here’s why to choose Instech:
- For animal safety. The pump monitors pressure to alert you to occlusions before they become a serious problem.
- For data quality. Monitoring occlusions gives you confidence that the dose was administered to the animal and not to the litter box.
- For superior flow performance. It has smoother flow in the lower part and higher velocities in the upper part.
- For ease of use. The pump has a modern touchscreen and a simplicity that hospital pumps cannot match.
- For accuracy. The rigid construction and unique frictionless design ensure accuracy of ±0.5% compared with 2-3% for most clinical pumps.
- For low-flow studies. With uniform microlitric flow rates, the pump is ideal for intrathecal dosing, microdialysis and infusion in mice, applications where pumps designed for human use become unnecessary.
