Overview:
The SPR-853 Millar P-V catheters have revolutionized cardiovascular research in small animals. These ultra-miniature catheters are capable of measuring both ventricular pressure and volume simultaneously and continuously from the intact beating hearts of rats and mice.
The SPR-853 is an ultra-miniature P-V Catheter (1.4F Polyimide Nylon) suitable for use in mice. The pairs of platinum electrodes are separated by 0.5mm with the distance between each pair being 4.0mm with a single pressure sensor in between the electrodes.
The SPR-853 can be used with:
- PL3516B49 MPVS-Ultra Foundation System
- PL3508B48/M MPVS-Ultra Single Segment Foundation System for Mice
- 880-0168SS MPVS-Ultra Single Segment Pressure-Volume Unit
- Requires 880-0170BNC MPVS-Ultra Single Segment Cable Pack
- MPVS-400 Pressure-Volume Unit (replaced by 880-0168SS MPVS-Ultra Single Segment Pressure-Volume Unit)
- Requires a PEC-4D Catheter Interface Cable (Low Profile to Redel, 4ft) for pressure measurement
- Requires a CEC-4B Conductance Catheter Connection Cable (discontinued) for volume measurement
Calibration
A Pressure Gauge kit which provides the necessary items to calibrate the pressure transducers is available. Please contact your nearest ADInstruments representative for any further information.
Features:
- Ultra-miniature 1.4F pressure sensor
- Four platinum electrodes are separated by 0.5mm with the distance between each pair of 4mm
- Pressure and volume measurement from a single instrument
- Flexible, durable, small-diameter catheter material
- High frequency response
