Sable Systems International introduces the Promethion Isocage, designed for metabolic and behavioral studies using germ-free or immunocompromised mice, as well as supporting murine SARS-CoV-2 research. This biocontainment cage starts out as the Tecniplast Isocage-P, which Sable customizes with a magnetically mounted running wheel, food hopper, water bottle and body mass habitat. When integrated with the Promethion Core metabolic and behavioral phenotyping system, the Isocage provides a stress-free environment with high air-flow rates, significantly reducing acclimation time for the animals.
