RWD induction chamber
The RWD induction chamber enables rapid induction of anaesthesia by inhalation (2-5 min), suitable for mice and rats. Made of transparent Plexiglas, it allows real-time observation of the animal’s condition, while limiting leakage thanks to a seal and efficient gas evacuation (activated carbon). Three sizes are available to suit different species.
