ALZET® Osmotic Pumps - Small implantable pumps used in medical research.

 

ALZET Osmotic PumpsALZET® Osmotic Pumps are miniature, infusion pumps for the continuous dosing of unrestrained laboratory animals as small as mice and young rats. These minipumps provide researchers with a convenient, reliable, and cost-effective method for controlled delivery of agents.

ALZET mini-osmotic pumps require no external connections or researcher intervention during the entire delivery period. Their unique design helps researchers save critical time by eliminating the need for frequent animal handling and repetitive injection schedules. These dependable drug delivery systems ensure that constant levels of compounds be maintained at therapeutic levels, thus avoiding potentially toxic or misleading side effects. An assortment of sizes, flow rates and durations is available to meet a variety of research needs. A single ALZET pump provides up to 6 weeks of continuous infusion.
