Stainless Steel Mouse Cage Rack

Build mouse housing around repeatable colony care

A mouse rack affects more than the number of cages that fit in a room. It shapes how staff observe animals, reach each position, exchange cages, check water, deliver feed, move waste, and document exceptions. This stainless steel configuration gives researchers and facility teams a defined starting point for planning a consistent mouse colony-care workflow.

The rack measures 1500 × 450 × 1500 mm, and the documented cage geometry is 290 × 178 × 160 mm. These values help teams evaluate floor area, aisle clearance, staff reach, cage-removal space, doorway access, and the route to the final housing room. They also provide a starting point for checking animal fit, stocking, study duration, and observation needs. The exact cage count is confirmed during quote review because the dimensions alone do not establish the delivered layout.

Consistency in mouse studies depends partly on the stability of the husbandry environment. Define how water is supplied and checked, how feed is replenished, how bedding or waste is managed, and how frequently cages move through the sanitation process. If the rack will support multiple study cohorts, plan identification and cage-position records so animals can be tracked without disrupting care rounds.

Room design should include the working envelope around the rack. Staff need enough space to remove and support cages safely, stage clean equipment, and move used equipment toward the wash area without crossing the facility's approved clean flow. Cage-retention features, watering interfaces, feeders, waste components, and mobility details are configuration choices that should be stated in the quote.

Provide ConductScience with the intended mouse population, cage-change method, water plan, sanitation workflow, room drawing, delivery path, and any study-specific access requirement. The quote can then define the rack, cage count, supplied interfaces, accessories, and placement responsibilities. This connects the hardware to animal welfare, staff practice, and the repeatability expected from the scientific program.
