The XNC-2 Mouse Nose Cones serve as replacement components for the 5-Mouse (XAM-5) and 10-Mouse (XAM-10) manifolds, which integrate with the RAS-4 rodent anesthesia system for in vivo imaging applications on the IVIS™ platform. These nose cones and manifolds enable simultaneous anesthesia delivery to up to 5 or 10 mice while maintaining consistent gas flow. Additionally, the manifolds feature integrated waste gas scavenging ports that capture excess anesthetic gases, protecting laboratory personnel from environmental exposure.
