I. Traditional Challenges Driving Innovation

In the past, traditional laboratory animal breeding systems had many drawbacks. Maintaining the overall barrier environment was extremely costly, requiring a large amount of resources to meet environmental standards. Moreover, ordinary cage racks took up a large amount of space. In laboratories where space is precious, this limited the increase in breeding density. At the same time, the heat, noise, and vibration generated during operation could have adverse effects on laboratory animals, interfering with the accuracy of experimental results.
To overcome these problems, Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd. has made all-out efforts in research and development and launched the Rotary Individual Ventilated Cage System (IVC), bringing new hope to laboratory animal breeding.

II. Innovative Design Leading to Excellent Performance

(I) Unique Rotary Structure

The rotary design is a major highlight of this system. The cage fixing frame has a special structure that can achieve 360-degree rotation. Breeding requirements that previously required multiple sets of cage racks can now be met within a limited space by integrating more cages through the rotary design. This not only greatly saves laboratory space but also significantly increases breeding density. When operating, staff can easily access each cage by simply rotating the cage rack, eliminating the need to travel back and forth between multiple sets of cage racks, which greatly improves operational convenience.

(II) Efficient Ventilation Guarantee

The ventilation system is the core of the IVC. We use advanced technology to construct two independent and non-interfering ventilation pipelines within the cage fixing frame. The clean air purified by the fresh air supply and exhaust system is injected into the cages from the air supply outlet through the air supply pipeline, ensuring that the air inside the cages remains fresh at all times. The dirty air exhaled by the animals in the cages is continuously extracted through the exhaust pipeline and sent back to the fresh air supply and exhaust system for purification, and then sent back to the cages, forming an efficient internal circulation. Both the intake and exhaust air are equipped with H14-grade HEPA filter membranes, with a filtration efficiency of ≥99.99% for bacteria and viruses, creating an almost sterile and pure environment for laboratory animals. This effectively reduces the interference of external environmental factors on experiments and greatly improves the accuracy of experiments.

(III) Sealed Cages for Protection

The cage design is also unique. When the cage is removed from the cage rack, the self-closing supply and exhaust channels are immediately activated, always maintaining good airtightness to prevent external pollutants from entering. The cage cover is specially equipped with a life window to prevent suffocation in case of power outages, and is covered with a 0.2μm high-efficiency microbial filter. Even in emergency situations such as sudden power outages, it can provide safety protection for laboratory animals, with a filtration efficiency of VFE and BFE≥99.99% for viruses and bacteria. In addition, the cage is made of high-quality acid- and alkali-resistant materials, such as polysulfone (PSU), which can withstand high-temperature and high-pressure disinfection without deformation, ensuring the durability and hygiene safety of the cage.

III. Wide Application Demonstrating Product Value

The Rotary Individual Ventilated Cage System (IVC) has demonstrated its significant value across numerous fields due to its exceptional performance. In scientific research institutions, it offers a stable and clean breeding environment for various laboratory animals, assisting researchers in obtaining more precise experimental data and fostering continuous breakthroughs in areas such as life sciences and medical research. Within pharmaceutical companies, it fulfills the stringent breeding requirements for laboratory animals during the drug development process, ensuring the accuracy of drug safety and efficacy testing and accelerating the new drug development pipeline. In health quarantine departments, its dependable biosafety protection effectively prevents the transmission of pathogens carried by laboratory animals, thereby facilitating the smooth execution of quarantine operations.

IV. Customer Trust Witnessing Brand Strength

Since the Rotary Individual Ventilated Cage System (IVC) was launched on the market, it has won the trust and praise of many customers. A well-known scientific research institution reported after purchasing that the system has significantly improved the utilization rate of laboratory space, greatly improved the breeding environment of laboratory animals, and significantly increased the accuracy and reliability of experimental data, making scientific research work more efficient. A large pharmaceutical company stated that the stable performance of the IVC system has provided a solid guarantee for drug development, effectively reducing development risks and costs.
