Vascular Access button (Instech)

Instech’s mouse VAB™ permits quick, aseptic connection and disconnection of a catheterized mouse and an infusion tether. This updated design uses magnets for ease of use and reduction of impact on animal welfare.

• Catheters attach to a 22 or 25 gauge connector under the felt, and Instech’s mouse catheters are designed to be a perfect fit with these connectors
• Models are available for jugular vein, carotid artery and femoral vein/artery.
• Access the built-in port of the button using a syringe fitted with a mating PinPort or VAHLS25/30 injector
• A red aluminum cap (VABM1C) is available to protect the button stalk when group housing mice, sold separately.
• Also available in a 2 channel version for simultaneous infusion and sampling
