Tubing and Adaptors

Common accessories in microdialysis experiments, we provide different kinds of FEP tubing depending on your specification criteria.

 

 

Tubing adapters are used to connect all the components ensuring it becomes a leak free system.The adapters are soaked in alcohol for a few minutes prior to use, allowing them to expand slightly. Once the adapter is put in place the alcohol evaporates and the adapters shrink, creating a tight connection with no dead volume.

 

MAB 10 Connectors allow you to connect 0.4mm OD FEP Tubing to 0.68mm OD FEP Tubing.

Probe Clip and In Vitro Stand

The in vitro stand is designed to hold the probe/guide between experiments e.g. for hanging it into a vial filled with liquid.

 

 

 

The probe clip allows easiest handling during the fixing (cementing) of the guide cannula and fits in the black plastic part of the in vitro stand. The steel rod is fixed to the probe clip and is used as an adaptor to the stereotaxic equipment.

Liquid Switches

The Liquid Switch is designed for the option of perfusing one probe with two different perfusion media without introducing air or interrupting the constant flow through the probe. It is also designed for ease of use and simple maintenance. To clean between experiments, perfuse with water and flush the Ringer's out properly. The switch can easily be taken apart and the individual parts washed separately in an ultra sonic bath.

Dual Channel Swivel and Metal Guide Cap

 The swivel, a device that rotates to keep the catheter from tangling, is a critical part of any continuous animal infusion system. The swivel can withstand pressures up to 2 bars and may be cleaned by rinsing with ethanol and water.

 

 

 

 

The Metal Guide Cap is made from aluminium and serves as a protection for the guides when animals are kept together between surgery and start of the microdialysis experiment. The cap fits all but MAB 8 Guide and is easy to put in place.
