 +Additionally,​ IVIS Lumina LT is equipped with a [[https://​www.kentscientific.com/​products/​somnoflo/?​srsltid=AfmBOoo0Ou5Ldx5Qcyl9O-LhECWrG5Y_qDed5DOdSe9kc8OGR6y0p3su|SomnoFlo® anaesthesia system]] ​ for experiments with live animals using isoflurane. This system allows the use of smaller amounts of anaesthesia when carrying out live-imaging experiments,​ keeps mice stable during image acquisition,​ and reduces their recovery time, preventing the loss of animals. The setup is currently able to keep **up to three mice receiving vaporized isoflurane inside the IVIS Lumina LT**, while being imaged at the same time.

 +Users that are planning on using the anaesthesia system should contact the **Rodent Platform'​s designated veterinarian,​ Daniel Costa** (daniel.costa@gimm.pt),​ to schedule a training session.
