Different pre-clinical imaging devices for the in vivo analysis of rodents, e.g. MRI, micro CT, optical imaging (bioluminescence & fluorecesence) and preclinical ultrasound.
Besides high throughput automated biochemical profiling of biological fluids, the platform also offers a series of special protocols for the analysis of e.g. Uromodulin, cyclic AMP, Vasopressin and Ammonium.
Different devices for the analysis of metabolic and physiologic functions in rodents, e.g. body composition analysis, mouse calorimetry, metabolic cages, whole body plethysmography
ZIRP offers a number of surgical procedures on demand as well as surgical workplaces and infrastructure for postoperative care and instrument processing.
Besides hardware & software, a number of different telemetry transmitters are available e.g. for EEG, EMG, ECG, blood pressure, temperature and activity acquisition.
ZIRP has a strong interest in refining experimental procedures to improve animal welfare but also the robustness of experimental data and is therefore performing its own refinement projects.
Check out our artificial mouse tails for i.v. injection training!
Artificial mouse tails help to reduce the number of animals used for training as well as the suffering of mice used for the final (in vivo) training step.
