Figure Lengend Snippet: Room lighting and cage transmission. (A) Schematic of the relative positioning of the DVC rack and the room lights. (B) Spectral power distribution of the DVC room light. (C) Standard Green Line individually ventilated cage (IVC; Tecniplast GM500). (D) Spectral power distribution of the internal light environment, and the transmission, of a standard cage. (E) Red individually ventilated cage (IVC; Tecniplast GM500). (F) Spectral power distribution of the internal light environment, and the transmission, of a red cage.
Article Snippet: All cages were placed in the Digital Ventilated Cage (DVC) rack (Tecniplast, Italy) at 20–24°C and 45–65% ±10% humidity, with food (Envigo 2916) and water available ad libitum .
Techniques: Transmission Assay
