New SomnoFlo Module addresses a growing concern in veterinary research

We are excited to announce the latest advancement in rodent anesthesia—SomnoFlo with the O2Care Module! Ready to enhance safety, flexibility, and ease of use, this new upgrade addresses a growing concern for researchers: the unintended effects of pure oxygen during anesthesia.

Recent studies have shown that delivering 100% oxygen can lead to off-target effects in animals under anesthesia. At the same time, 21% oxygen (the level in ambient room air) may not always be enough to prevent hypoxia.

Easily blend ambient air with 100% compressed oxygen – without cumbersome equipment 

Traditional methods —custom gas blends or external gas mixers—are often bulky, expensive, and complicated.

SomnoFlo O2Care makes it easy to blend ambient air with 100% compressed oxygen, giving you full control over your carrier gas composition.

Precision Oxygen Control—At Your Fingertips

With the O2Care Module, you can easily select oxygen concentrations of 21%, 35%, 50%, 70%, or 100% using an intuitive touch-screen interface. Whether you’re managing a long procedure, handling a critical emergency, or refining your anesthesia protocols, O2Care provides unmatched flexibility.
