The IL-1 features an integrated changeover system for switching between physiological negative-pressure and simple positive-pressure ventilation - essential during the preparatory phase
The PSCI is simple to setup, operate and maintain.
Its compact design minimizes the bench space required for the system.
The wetted components of the perfusion circuit can be flushed with a 70% ethanol solution for sterilization purposes.
Ex vivo organ chambers can be flushed with Carbogen during perfusion to minimize bacterial contamination.
Low system perfusate deadspace volumes of just 3ml (mouse systems) or 5ml (rat systems).
Systems available with flow rate range from: 0-50ml/min and 0-100ml/min.
There are four models from which to choose: PSCI-M or PSCI-R for mouse or rat/guinea pig in situ and ex vivo organ perfusion or, alternatively, PSCI-MH, PSCI-RH for mouse heart or rat/guinea pig heart perfusion.
