Which caging system is best? 
Which caging system is best?bioBubble is not in the business of selling cages or caging systems. However, we can offer consulting on how to improve the capabilities of your existing system and provide unbiased information about the types of cages and caging systems currently available. With so many options available, who has time to figure it all out? bioBubble offers a simple solution: use your existing caging. bioBubble Freestanding and Architectural Renovation Clean Rooms allow you to use any type of cages or caging systems- more effectively. 
Ventilated Rack SystemsIf you currently have or are considering using ventilated rack systems, we recommend housing the units in a bioBubble environment to minimize problems of contamination due to probable leakage into or out of the cages. Using ventilated rack systems inside bioBubble Clean Rooms does offer a distinct advantage. It allows you to create a more flexible environment that has four possible barrier/ containment combinations:
Simplified Caging Many customers have found great success using cages with open wire bar lids (with or without simple filter bonnets) or static microisolator cages in the highly filtered environment of a bioBubble Clean Room. Running the clean rooms in either positive or negative pressure is a highly efficient alternative to using ventilated racks, and a means for many facilities and institutions to use their existing resources and simultaneously combat budgetary restrictions. 
Health StatusIs it possible to have excellent health status using simple caging? Could we anticipate having a high quality environment without the use of ventilated racks? For the answer to these questions check the health status reports of a large breeding facility using simplified systems housed in bioBubble Clean Rooms at: http://taconic.com/healthr/Sites/OxnardSite.htm |
