Quietek Automated Euthanization Device

SKU:
QTK

Ensure that laboratory rodents are humanely euthanized without disrupting laboratory workflow. Quietek is an affordable, fully-automated device specifically designed to comply with revised 2013 AVMA guidelines.

Adheres to stringent 2013 AVMA guidelines for Euthanasia of Animals that states that flow rate for lab rodent C02 euthanasia systems should displace up to 70% of chamber or cage volume/minute. NIH requires all new research plans and renewals be evaluated using these guidelines.

Designed by animal research facility managers and scientists, easy to use, accurate system ensures that users correctly administer C02 by automatically calculating gas delivery for cage volume and desired fill rate. C02 conditions will be consistent every time, thereby eliminating a source of variation and taking the guesswork out of euthanasia.
