A new standard for paediatric airway management MICROCUFF* Paediatric Endotracheal Tubes from AVANOS, designed specifically for the paediatric anatomy, offer the advantages of a cuffed tube, reducing tracheal trauma and providing a sealed airway that allows minimal and low flow anaesthesia use.1 Its short and cylindrical cuff membrane compensates for different sized and shaped paediatric airways, reducing the need for replacing oversized tracheal tubes, and resulting in lower re-intubation rates.13 The MICROCUFF* brand has changed the existing green Vent Connector on all of the MICROCUFF* tubes and replaced it with a blue Vent Connector.

Provides A Superior Tracheal Seal … A Better Fit and Better Seal The MICROCUFF* tube from AVANOS, has advanced microthin polyurethane cuff material that allows the channels to “self-seal,” reducing the possibility of leakage. The build of the tube provides an effective seal at low cuff pressure. In turn, the MICROCUFF* may reduce micro-aspiration of potentially infectious pharyngeal secretions14. What’s more, it is designed for better contact with tracheal contour14. The thinner material enables greater visualisation of vocal cords when cuff is deflated. The MICROCUFF* is non-sterile and made from natural rubber that is latex-free. Intended for use in adults and for single-use.

Provides A Superior Tracheal Seal … Proven to Reduce Leakage AVANOS* MICROCUFF* Subglottic Suctioning Adult Endotracheal Tubes are available in adult sizes with a Murphy Eye. They include a separate lumen with a dorsal opening above the cuff to provide access to the subglottic space. The subglottic space is reached via a normally open suction valve which includes a one-way port for rinsing the subglottic space with sterile saline (0.95% Sodium Chloride solution) or administering an air bolus to assist in maintaining suction lumen patency. Multiple size options available for the MICROCUFF* Subglottic Suctioning Adult Endotracheal Tube. Sizing options for the inner diameter vary between 7mm and 9mm. Similarly, the outer diameter sizing ranges from 10.4mm to 12.8mm. Cuff sizes come in 28mm and 30mm. The MICROCUFF* Subglottic Suctioning Adult Endotracheal Tubes are manufactured from natural rubber that is latex-free. EO Sterilised, they should be used no more than once.

Microbial ID microplates from Biolog Biolog Solutions for Microbial Identification Rapidly and accurately identify nearly 3,000 species of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, yeast, and fungi. In addition to species-level identification, Biolog’s advanced phenotypic technology provides valuable information on the functional properties of strains. Biolog’s carbon source utilisation technology identifies environmental and pathogenic microorganisms by producing a characteristic pattern or “metabolic fingerprint” from discrete test reactions performed within a 96-well microplate. Culture suspensions are tested with a panel of pre-selected assays, then incubated, read and compared to our extensive database. Biolog’s Microbial ID microplates incorporate a patented redox tetrazolium dye that changes colour as a result of cellular respiration, providing a metabolic fingerprint. Our complete solution includes instruments, consumables, databases, software. -
Phenotype MicroArrays for Mammalian Cells Using Biolog’s Phenotype MicroArray™ Technology, any type of cell can be characterised for metabolically related phenotypes in over 1,000 assays in a simple, rapid, and cost-effective manner. By measuring a cell’s metabolic activity, including responses to a genetic alteration or chemical stimuli, this integrated system of cellular assays, instrumentation, and bioinformatic software reveals unique and insightful information on metabolic pathway activities, and cellular sensitivity to nutrients, hormones, cytokines, anti-cancer agents, and ions. By measuring energy output of cells, the technology also provides new assays for understanding mitochondrial function and toxicity. Phenotype MicroArrays enable insight and discovery to expedite scientific publications. This is accomplished using 96 well microplates, pre-loaded with hundreds of KEGG pathway-matched metabolic substrates, and metabolic effectors. Phenotype MicroArrays are a proven method of cellular screening that is beneficial in a wide range of research applications:- Genotype/phenotype studies
- Cell line characterisation and QC
- Cellular metabolism, metabolic disorders, nutrition
- Cell energetics growth and death
- Hormone effects on cells
- Metabolic reprogramming in cancer, Warburg effect, anti-cancer drug sensitivity
- Mitochondrial toxicology in chemical/drug screens
- Stem cells and differentiation
