MouseCath™ Mouse Catheters
AVABIO has a unique line of specialty mouse catheters designed to address issues associated with long-term catheterization in mice. All of our catheters are manufactured with the same thermoplastic polyurethane material as human catheters so you have continuity of materials between species. The MouseCath™ polyurethane catheters utilize a stepped design to allow for small flexible catheter tips and thicker wall more manageable tubing at the exit site. The MouseCath features solvent polished tip to allows for vessel friendly insertion of the catheter tip and the proximal end of the catheter has maximum wall thickness to decrease the likelihood of kinking.
