Compact, quiet, lightweight and virtually vibrationless
While designed specifically for mice, the MiniVent can be used for any animals (e.g. birds and perinatal rats) which require tidal volumes in the range of 30-350 µl. The MicroVent Ventilator is ideal for very small animals, even perinatal mice, which require tidal volumes in the range of 0-130 µl. The MidiVent was designed specifically for large mice, but can be used for any animal (e.g. small rats, shrew, hamster) which require tidal volumes in the range of 60-700 µl. All three feature respiratory rates of 60-400 breaths per minute.
