White
(may look tan after sterilization) |
56 µl |
Use to cannulate the stomach, duodenum, or peritoneal cavity. This catheter is designed for dosing. Only the sleeve will lie outside the exit point, so animals with this catheter can be returned to a home cage for recovery. No extenders are needed for hooking animals to the CX-2029S extender allows oral dosing from outside the cage |
| Bile duct catheter |
CX-8000S |
Black |
55 µl |
Use to cannulate the bile duct. Pair this catheter with a CX-8001S GI catheter in the duodenum and MR-5411 connector to recirculate bile when you are not collecting. Only the sleeve of this catheter will lie outside the exit point, so animals can be returned to the home cage for recovery. |
| Femoral Artery or Portal Vein Catheter |
CX-8002S |
Orange |
55 µl |
Use to cannulate the femoral artery. Alternatively, this catheter can be used to cannulate the Portal Vein. Only the sleeve will lie outside the exit point, so animals can be returned to the home cage for recovery. |
| Mouse Jugular |
CX-2022S |
Light blue |
6 µl |
Use to cannulate the jugular vein of a mouse. Only the sleeve of the catheter will lie outside the exit point. Extenders should not be used to hook the animal to BASi Culex ®. |
| Mouse Carotid |
CX-2052S |
Red |
14.5 µl |
Use to cannulate the carotid artery of a mouse. Only the sleeve of this catheter will lie outside the exit point. Extenders should not be used to hook the animal to BASi Culex ®. |
| Mouse GI |
CX-8003S |

| G.I. Catheter Extender |
CX-2029S |
No bead |
186 µl |
Use to orally dose an animal manually from outside the cage. If dosing via Empis rather than manually, do not use an extender. GI extenders have a larger volume than vascular catheter extenders, and are designed to connect to a luer hub syringe. |
| Catheter Extender |
CX-2030S |
No bead |
22 µl |
Use to dose an animal manually from outside the cage. This can be used with any rat catheter for dosing. If you are dosing via Empis rather than manually, do not use an extender. Do not use to hook an animal to BASi Culex. |
| Crossover Extender |
CX-2034S |
No bead |
140 µl |
Use to hook an animal cannulated with a peripheral vein catheter when performing first pass metabolism experiments using the BASi Culex ®. This extender will connect the animal with the second BASi Culex ® Controller for blood sampling. |
