Simple mouse metabolism cage

Abstract

The invention discloses a simple mouse metabolism cage. The simple mouse metabolism cage comprises a cage body. The cage body is divided into two areas, namely the area A and the area B through a spacing plate in the middle of the cage body. The area A is provided with a cage door A. The area B is provided with a cage door B. The bottom wall of the area B is of a net shape. The lower portion of the net-shaped bottom of the area B is further connected with a funnel. The lower portion of the funnel is connected with a collecting pipe. According to the simple mouse metabolism cage, a mouse is raised in the area A at the time of general breeding; when urine needs to be collected, the mouse is placed in the area B, and after the mouse urinates, the urine is filtered through the net-shaped bottom wall, enters the funnel and flows into the collecting pipe. Therefore, the collection of the urine is realized. The simple mouse metabolism cage is simple in structure and low in cost; the urine and excrement can be separated easily, so that cross contamination is not caused, and the urine is not prone to volatilization.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biological instruments, in particular to a simple metabolic cage for mice. Background technique: [0002] Because of their small size, fast growth and reproduction, low cost and easy control, mice are often used as medical experimental animals. Urine detection in mice is a very important physical and chemical indicator. Therefore, it is very important to collect mouse urine, However, the current city The metabolic cages for mice sold are complex in structure, inconvenient to use and high in cost, and are likely to cause cross-contamination of feces and urine, and urine The liquid is easily volatile. Invention content: [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a simple metabolic cage for mice with simple structure, low cost, easy separation of urine and feces, no cross-contamination, and less volatilization of urine. [0004] The present invention is implemented through the following tech...
