Animal Restrainers, Injection Cones, Containment, Surgery Boards
These convenient restrainers have been a research standard for over twenty-five years. The adjustable tail stock can be inserted into any one of four positions. Apertures in the top and bottom provide easy access for injections or sampling. The pocket and holes in the front make it easy to anesthetize or feed the animal.
Broome Restrainers are the most effective style available for three basic reasons:
The Zucker Rat Restrainer is a special Broome Style unit modified for obesity studies for adult, obese rats 500-800g.
The Rodent Injection Cone allows the researcher to isolate the rodent tail from the body allowing easy and safe access to the tail.

Specifications
Rodent Injection Cone and Illuminated Rodent Injection Cone:
This is the only available unit which can be used as a free flow or sealed system. The chamber may be used as an open or closed system. If an open system (free flow of air) is desired, align the holes on the top cone with the main clear cylinder. If not, misalign the holes to affect the closed system. Once misaligned, simply tape the top and the bottom to the main cylinder.
Accommodates mice, rats, gerbils, hamsters, and guinea pig sized animals. This inexpensive containment system is extremely useful for acute or chronic studies.
All rodent restrainers are manufactured from clear materials to provide complete visual awareness of the state of your animal.
Applications
These restrainers are offered in four sizes taking into consideration the animals age, weight, and sex. The units are constructed of optical quality clear acrylic (Perspex™), and a formed black plastic nose cone with an Acetal™ locking slide. The main restraining cylinder can be rotated 360° to provide complete access to the animal. All units are mounted on a white acrylic base plate with suction cup feet to guarantee reliable stability during testing procedures. Counter top space required is 11.5 x 21".
The Bowman Style Rodent Restrainer has been re-engineered and refined to accommodate larger sized animals up to 750 grams. The positions of the stainless steel rods around the rodent provide easy access for many types of research applications, especially obesity studies.
The rodent can quickly be inserted into the restrainer by removing several stainless steel upper rods, or through an access port hole in the rear upright. The access port hole features a polycarbonate locking door to prevent escape.
The front "guillotine" door can be adjusted and locked by using any one of three adjustment positions. The door has stainless steel "spring loaded" lock. Suction cup feet on the white plastic base secure the device during use.
Clear acrylic restrainers provide total observation of your research animal and safe handling while working with your laboratory animals. These restrainers were developed under research conditions. The clear acrylic materials protect and safeguard your research animals. These restrainers help eliminate or minimize back injuries from uncontrolled kicking of the back legs.
These clear acrylic restrainers provide complete visual awareness and status of your valuable animal. The plastic is warm to the touch and eliminates the problem of hypothermia. Included with each restrainer are adjustable head restraint bars, an adjustable back "butt" plate, stainless steel locking adjustment pin for the neck support (three positions), and an adjustable formed back support to minimize broken backs. Also included is a non-slip floor material to provide secure animal footing and calm the animal.
Surgery boards are formed of one piece high-temp Noryl™ for durability and ease of cleaning. Five adjustable Nylon cords are included with each board.
