World Precision Instrument Posts for Mouse and Neonatal Rat Adaptors, Set of 3
For use with the 505211 WPI Rat Stereotaxic Instruments and other Stereotaxic Instruments
Model organisms with soft skulls, such as the mouse and the neonatal rat, are difficult to secure firmly in a traditional stereotaxic instrument. The stainless steel ear bars used for adult rats are too heavy to provide a secure hold without compressing the sides of the skull inward (which closes the airways and impedes blood fl ow). Further, the neonatal rat pup has no external opening of the auditory canal into which to insert the ear bars.

World Precision Instrument Cannula and Minipump Holder
The 505253 and 505254 models differ in the way they hold the cannula. The 505254 holdes the cannula away from the shaft of the probe holder while the 505253 holds the cannula vertically directly in line with the shaft of the probe holder.
World Precision Instrument Mouse Ear Bars, Non-Rupture and Rubber Tips for 505200 Series
Using model organisms with soft skulls, such as the mouse and the neonatal rat, are difficult to secure firmly in a traditional stereotaxic instrument. The Mouse/Neonatal Rat Adaptor is designed for use with the traditional 'U' frame Stereotaxic instrument. The adaptor employs light, Delrin Ear Bars with tapered points on one end, and rubber tips on the other, to facilitate surgery on mice and rat pups.
World Precision Instrument Trough Filament-505108
A glass puller is a laboratory instrument used to create fine, tapered glass micropipettes or microelectrodes. The choice of filament for the glass puller is crucial, as it directly influences the heating element's performance and, consequently, the quality of the pulled glass. Different types and shapes of filaments can be used, and the selection depends on factors such as the desired pipette. A trough filament is used in some capillary glass pullers, and it is designed to creates a trough or indentation along its length. This design allows for localized heating. The groove is somewhat U-shape, creating a depression in the filament. The trough design allows for localized heating along the groove, influencing the glass softening and pulling process in a specific way. Trough filaments give you controlled taper angles in the pulled capillaries. The localized heating helps create more precise and consistent tapers.

World Precision Instrument Loop Filament-505105
A glass puller is a laboratory instrument used to create fine, tapered glass micropipettes or microelectrodes. The choice of filament for the glass puller is crucial, as it directly influences the heating element's performance and, consequently, the quality of the pulled glass. Different types and shapes of filaments can be used, and the selection depends on factors such as the desired pipette. A loop filament is used in glass micropipette pullers. This filament design features a loop configuration with the ends of the wire coming together to form a closed loop. The loop filament is designed to influence the glass softening and pulling process in a way that creates specific shapes in the pulled capillaries. The loop filament has a single turn, and the ends of the wire meet to form a closed loop. The loop design allows for controlled and localized heating, influencing the glass softening and pulling process in a specific manner.

World Precision Instrument Vannas Tubingen type, 8cm, Ceramic Coated, Curved
Ceramic Coated Vannas Tübingen scissors are specialized microsurgical scissors that are highly precise and delicate, commonly used in ophthalmic and neurological procedures. They are named after Tübingen, a city in Germany, where the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics is located. The black coating is non-reflective. Vannas Tübingen scissors are incredibly fine instruments, crafted of high-quality surgical grade stainless steel with extreme precision. Their design includes thin, and sharp blades, which allow for highly accurate and precise cutting in microsurgical settings. The tips of these scissors are exceptionally sharp and thin, enabling them to access and cut very fine and delicate tissues without causing unnecessary damage to surrounding structures. This is especially crucial in delicate surgeries, such as in ophthalmic procedures, where precision is paramount. The blades of Vannas Tübingen scissors can be curved or straight.
