The Clam Shell Holder is a unique device for
use when the rodents head cannot be placed in a
standard holder.
The clam shell holders have the features
required for demanding research. The holder
telescopes, so it can be adjusted for long or
short animals. The front neck plates are thin
and have a “V” shaped slot, as the top plate is
pushed down, it quickly adjusts to the proper
size of the neck to hold the animal.
The main tube of the holder is hinged and opens
completely. The animal can quickly and easily be
placed in the holder without disturbing any
connections or instruments on the head. The tail
is also accessible for blood pressure
measurements and blood sampling.
