BASi Launches Two Solutions to Automated Blood Collection.WEST LAFAYETTE West Lafayette, city (1990 pop. 25,907), Tippecanoe co., W Ind., a suburb of Lafayette, on the Wabash River; inc. 1924. A primarily residential city, it is the seat of Purdue Univ. , Ind. -- BASi is proud to announce two new products for automated blood collection (ABC ABC in full American Broadcasting Co. Major U.S. television network. It began when the expanding national radio network NBC split into the separate Red and Blue networks in 1928. ) - Culex Culex /Cu·lex/ (ku´leks) a genus of mosquitoes found throughout the world, many species of which are vectors of disease-producing organisms. Cu·lex n. ([R]) ABC and Culex([R])-L ABC, which provide solutions to automated blood sampling. BASi is the industry leader in specialized instrumentation and accessories for in vivo in vivo /in vi·vo/ (ve´vo) [L.] within the living body. in vi·vo adj. Within a living organism. in vivo adv. sampling products. The BASi family of Culex products has always provided researchers the best automated means to collect in vivo samples. The new Culex ABC units are simplified versions of the original movement-responsive Culex system, giving the option to collect only blood if an integrative pharmacology pharmacology, study of the changes produced in living animals by chemical substances, especially the actions of drugs, substances used to treat disease. Systematic investigation of the effects of drugs based on animal experimentation and the use of isolated and approach is not needed. The Culex ABC is designed for rodents and other small animals, while the Culex-L ABC is for large animal models, including swine and primates. Features of the new BASi Culex ABC and Culex-L ABC include: * Automated, stress-free, hands-off sampling * Adaptable to a home cage for animal security and comfort * Freedom from time-consuming manual sampling * Day or night sample collection without an operator present * Permits using most swivels, catheters, and tethering systems * Multiple systems controlled from a single computer with individual user-defined volumes and methods "The new Culex ABC units provide a simple, straightforward solution to automated blood collection in small and large animal models," stated BASi Instruments Division Senior Vice President, Craig Bruntlett, Ph.D. "The ability to collect samples any time day or night without an operator provides researchers with the best automated means to collect in vivo samples."
