Previous fecal collection cups with tape fixation frequently led to serious necroses of the rat tail due to strangulations, and did not allow for growth of the tail. A recently developed new model gives space for rapidly growing tails and is securely fixed by a cannula perforating both fecal collection cup and tail. It is transparent, cheap to be made, and easy to empty and was tested in 118 animals for two and four weeks. In no case the cup did loosen or had to be removed due to infections, strangulations or any local problems.
先前使用胶带固定的粪便收集杯常常因勒绞导致大鼠尾巴严重坏死，且阻碍尾巴生长。最近开发的一种新模型为快速生长的尾巴留出了空间，并通过一根贯穿粪便收集杯和尾巴的套管进行牢固固定。它是透明的，制作成本低，易于清空，已在118只动物身上进行了为期两周和四周的测试。在任何情况下，收集杯都没有因感染、勒绞或任何局部问题而松动或需要移除。
