Rodent Glucose Clamp
For Mice
Mouse insulin and glucose studies can be conducted safely and efficiently with the right high-quality supplies from SAI.
Insulin sensitivity studies can become complex and challenging, but we are here to provide the support and resources you need for success. Whether your research involves Glucose Tolerance Tests (GTT), Hyperglycemic Clamp techniques, or Hyperinsulinemic-Euglycemic Clamp protocols, we offer expert guidance and tailored recommendations to streamline your process. Explore our curated selection of supplies and solutions below to ensure your studies are conducted with precision, reliability, and ease.
Supplies for ITT and GTT Studies
In this study design, a loading dose of glucose (gtt) or insulin (itt) is followed by intermittent blood sampling. The dose is typically administered orally, and since multiple blood samples are needed, an access port is the best tool to make catheter access quick and easy.
Silicone Mouse Jugular Catheter Beads at 11 and 29mm
Our biocompatible polyurethane and silicone catheters are designed to enhance patency and minimize vessel trauma during implantation. All these catheters have beads accurately positioned from the catheter tip for optimal implantation position within the vessel. Beads are also positioned to provide a secure tension loop to maximize continued patency during[...]
Disposable Feeding Needle, Rat, Sterile, 100mm, Grey with Bite Guard
These PTFE feeding needles are designed to reduce the risk of trauma and bite-through, providing a safe, low cost, disposable, solution for oral gavage. SAI's affordable feeding tubes boast distinct features, including a soft silicone tip, a smooth plastic PTFE shaft and an optional, bite-resistant, stainless steel bite-guard for maximum[...]
CannuLock™ Ports, 25G Red, 10 sterile pouches of 2 each, 20 ports total
SAI's Catheter Access Ports™ offer all new CannuLock™ technology, providing a remarkably secure connection between your catheter and the port. The carefully designed barbed connector locks with the catheter to eliminate the risk of slipping or disconnecting. CannuLock™ technology is also available in our Catheter Access Button™. Smooth barb safely "locks"[...]
Supplies for Hyperglycemic Clamp Studies
In this study design, glucose is infused intravenously with adjustments to reach a steady state. From there, intermittent blood samples are collected and analyzed to establish glucose levels. Since the mouse must be tethered, and low-stress, the CannuLock™ Catheter Access Button™ is an ideal tool.

Supplies for Hyperinsulinemic-Euglycemic Clamp Studies
This protocol relies on intravenous (IV) infusion of insulin to set a baseline, as well as variable rate infusion of glucose (into the same IV line). It’s also common to incorporate an additional channel to dose an experimental compound. Intermittent blood sampling for glucose levels will determine the impact of the drug administration on the mouse.
