Drosophila Anesthesia CO₂ station

(Click to see larger image)

The Drosophila CO₂ Work Station allows flies to be anaesthetized with unparalleled precision, convenience, and safety.  An electronic foot pedal allows the user to deliver just the right amount of CO₂ to keep flies asleep. This saves a lot of CO₂, compared with continuous-flow systems, is much less likely to inadvertently kill important specimens due to over-anaesthetizing, is much more convenient than systems that require users to reach around and hand-operate valves in the middle of genetics, and is safer, for all concerned, than using organic solvents as anaesthetics.

The MINJ-DROS-EXP is an expansion station for either the MINJ-DROS-1 or the MINJ-DROS-2. Any number of stations can share the same compressed gas source; just contact us via phone to easily and quickly design or upgrade a system to suit your specific lab or classroom space and number of users.

We also recommend ordering each of these with a MINJ-DROS-FP for the most convenient use.
