Overview

  This product is a ready‑to‑use sterile anesthetic, with the active ingredient Tribromoethanol (TBE, also known as Avertin). It is a non‑controlled substance. This reagent has been recommended for anesthesia in surgical procedures related to transgenic rat breeding, and is suitable for use in pregnant rats without affecting the pregnancy process or fetal viability. It is administered via intraperitoneal injection, making it simple and convenient to use. The anesthetic takes effect in <5 minutes and lasts for 24–90 minutes. It is intended only for anesthesia in rodent rats. 

Product Advantages

• Superior to chloral hydrate

• Suitable for anesthesia in pregnant rats

• Rapid onset: <5 minutes

• Long duration: 24–90 minutes

• Ethically approved and recognized in SCI‑indexed publications

Precautions

1. After opening, it is recommended to use within 2 weeks. Prolonged storage may lead to precipitation or decomposition of components, reducing anesthetic efficacy or even causing peritonitis. Before use, always check the expiration date on the label and observe whether the solution has changed color or developed crystals. Perform a pilot experiment before formal studies.

2. Recommended anesthetic dose: 10 µL/g, administered via right intraperitoneal injection (this is a recommended starting dose; adjust according to actual conditions). To accelerate recovery, a heating pad may be used to raise the ambient temperature of the rat.

3. Select an appropriate dose based on the duration of the surgical procedure. If anesthesia needs to be extended, a supplemental dose of one‑third of the initial dose may be administered.

4. It is normal for the rat anesthetic to appear as a turbid suspension. If crystals have formed, dissolve and mix thoroughly at 37–60°C.

5. For research use only (non‑clinical research).
