Abstract

Here we describe modifications made to an 8 sq. ft. aluminum baboon cage to allow removal of a chronically cannulated baboon from the cage without disconnecting the catheter connections. The novel system minimizes potential contamination of the intravenous catheters in an immunosuppressed baboon model and permits removal of the animal for cage changes and transport to a distant facility for experimental manipulation.
