General Information

Accurate assessment of animal energy expenditure and substrate utilization requires that testing be performed within a temperature range that suits the species under study. For research with mice and rats, this temperature is well above that of the common laboratory environment. Columbus Instruments' CLAMS-ENC series of Temperature and Light Controlled Enclosures provide a user adjustable environment that offers isolation of multiple animal chambers from the ambient environment as well as control of operating temperature (5°to 40°C) and lighting (with control of both color temperature and level of illumination). CLAMS-ENC units also support rapid "cold challenge" protocols.
