The cage and filtertop system has been developed for two purposes:
To protect animals during transport: By placing a filtertop on the animal cages during any kind of transport, the animals can be protected against contamination from the outside environment.
To create a microisolator: The cage and filtertop unit can be regarded as a microisolator in which animals can be held temporarily. It is a simple short-time alternative to the complex barrier room system creating the barrier at cage level.

We offer all basic sizes – type 2, 2L, 3, 3H

Advantages:

• No cross contamination from animals of different species in the same room
• Cages can be moved safely from the LF bench to other areas (controlled or not controlled) because the isolation stays intact
• Infection from personnel is no longer possible
• Different species can be studied in the same room if necessary
• Experimental infection with different microbes can be studied in the same room
