CSF LoVol™ Ports
The LoVol™ ports comprise ultra-low dead volumes to facilitate enhanced CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) access. These LoVol™ products are based on the MID and MIN port designs but reduce fluid dead volume under the septum by about 90%. The LoVol™ MIN has a dead volume of approximately 15uL while the LoVol™ MID is approximately 40uL.
Also consider LoVol™ ports for any application requiring minimal dead volume, i.e., unusually expensive test article studies.
For CSF Sampling in large animals, use the MIN-CSF-SAM, a specialized port device which provides a subcutaneous guide cannula which is accessed via the port septum using a standard spinal needle.
