AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing in vivo near-infrared 2D imaging equipment for small animals cannot maintain the body temperature of mice, cannot automatically adjust the spacing and position between mice, and cannot effectively collect condensate from anesthetic waste gas and residual experimental liquids.

Method used

A near-infrared two-zone imaging operating platform for small animals was designed, which includes an adjustable fixing mechanism and a collection component. The heating plate maintains the body temperature of the mice, the spacing and position of the mice are automatically adjusted by the squeezing column and the moving plate, and the waste liquid is automatically collected by the guide channel and the collection bottle.

Benefits of technology

It achieved the maintenance of mouse body temperature during imaging, automatically adjusted mouse position and spacing, and effectively collected anesthetic waste gas condensate and experimental liquid residue, ensuring the smooth progress of the experiment.

Abstract

This utility model discloses a near-infrared two-zone imaging operating table for small animals, including an imaging box and an adjustable fixing mechanism. The imaging box has a door on its front side and a movable mounting base inside. The adjustable fixing mechanism includes a reclining plate, a squeezing groove, a moving plate, squeezing columns, and a collection component. The reclining plate is slidably connected to the upper end of the mounting base, the squeezing groove is opened in the middle of the lower end of the reclining plate, the moving plate is slidably connected to the middle of the upper end of the mounting base, the squeezing columns are evenly distributed on the upper end of the moving plate, and the outer surface of the squeezing columns is slidably connected to the inner wall of the vertically adjacent squeezing groove. The collection component is located in the middle of the front side inside the mounting base. This near-infrared two-zone imaging operating table for small animals, with an adjustable fixing mechanism, can maintain the body temperature of mice, quickly and automatically adjust the spacing between mice and the position of mice inside the imaging box, and can also automatically collect anesthetic waste gas condensate and experimental liquid residue.
