ALZET

ALZET Osmotic Pumps provide precise, continuous drug delivery for preclinical research in small animal models. These implantable pumps use osmotic pressure to deliver compounds at a constant rate, eliminating the variability associated with manual dosing or external infusion systems. With models ranging from one day to six weeks of operation, ALZET pumps support systemic or localized administration of compounds, enabling reproducible studies in pharmacology, toxicology, oncology, and neuroscience.

Distributed by ALZET in North America, iPRECIO implantable pumps combine programmability, refillability, and wireless control for flexible dosing protocols. Researchers can define infusion schedules with variable rates, bolus injections, and rest phases—all within the same study—while refilling the pump in situ for extended experimental timelines. Ideal for chronic dosing or combination therapy studies, iPRECIO pumps deliver the precision of automated infusion with the freedom to adapt dosing regimens in real time.

ALZET Brain Infusion Kits enable targeted delivery of agents to specific regions of the brain or spinal cord in animal models. Designed for seamless integration with ALZET osmotic pumps, these kits include precision cannulae and connectors for intracerebral, intraventricular, or intrathecal administration. By maintaining a closed, sterile pathway from pump to target site, the system ensures accurate dosing and minimal backflow—making it a trusted solution for neuroscience, neuropharmacology, and CNS drug delivery research.

ALZET offers a range of pre-tested catheters engineered for compatibility with osmotic and programmable pumps. Available in multiple lengths, diameters, and materials, these catheters enable site-specific delivery to veins, arteries, organs, or the CNS. Their low-compliance, biocompatible design ensures consistent flow rates and minimal tissue irritation, supporting a wide array of pharmacological and physiological studies.

Cannulae Holders provide a stable interface for precise placement of infusion cannulae in brain or spinal applications. Built from durable, biocompatible materials, these holders maintain the alignment and integrity of the infusion pathway throughout extended studies. Used alongside ALZET pumps or brain infusion kits, they simplify surgical setup and reduce procedural variability, helping researchers achieve accurate and reproducible CNS delivery.

ALZET’s wound closure systems are designed for quick, secure, and biocompatible sealing following surgical pump implantation. Offering both mechanical and adhesive options, these systems promote healing and minimize post-operative complications while maintaining animal comfort. Optimized for small animal research, they complement ALZET’s infusion products by ensuring reliable surgical outcomes across repeated or long-term dosing studies.
