The Injection Cone with Light efficiently illuminates a mouse tail for swift injections or blood sampling. It ensures accurate vein identification and minimizes the risk of bleeding, making it the ideal restraint for tail vein procedures. With adjustable red and blue lights, users can customize the light output for enhanced visibility, facilitating even easier and quicker injections. This unique design is especially useful for large-scale samplings, optimizing the positioning of rodents for maximum efficiency. Our injection cones are essential for researchers prioritizing efficiency and speed in tail vein procedures.

The injection tail technique in rodents, often referred to as “tail vein injection,” is a common method used in research to administer substances such as drugs, contrast agents, or other compounds into the bloodstream. This technique is often facilitated by visualizing the tail vein, and one method involves using a cone with light to enhance visibility. Here’s an overview of the technical principle:
The rodent is typically restrained to minimize movement during the injection process. Common methods include using a restrainer or a tube that allows access to the tail while keeping the animal stil Vein VisualizationTo visualize the tail vein, a transparent or translucent cone with a light source is often used. The cone is placed over the tail, and the light helps to illuminate the blood vessels, making it easier to identify the vein.
Sometimes, gently heating the tail can enhance vein visibility. This is done using a warm water bath or an infrared lamp. The increased blood flow to the tail can make the veins more
The researcher identifies the target vein, usually by its color and size. The tail vein is a common choice due to its accessibility and size in rodents.
Once the vein is identified, a needle connected to a syringe containing the substance to be injected is carefully inserted into the vein. Precision is crucial to avoid injury and ensure proper administration.
After injection, the researcher may monitor the animal for any adverse reactions or to ensure that the substance is properly administered.
It’s essential to note that the use of restraint and the injection procedure should follow ethical guidelines and regulations for the humane treatment of animals in research. Researchers typically undergo training to perform these procedures with care and precision.
Keep in mind that the specific details of the technique may vary depending on the laboratory, the type of study, and the substances being injected. Always follow the appropriate ethical and regulatory guidelines when working with laboratory animals.
The injection tail technique in rodents involves administering substances into the bloodstream using the tail vein. A common method includes using a cone with a light source to enhance visibility of the vein.
The procedure typically involves restraining the rodent, visualizing the tail vein with the aid of a cone and light, and carefully injecting the substance into the identified vein.
Researchers follow ethical guidelines and regulations to ensure the humane treatment of animals in research.
