An isolator, in which complex operations can be performed on a large gnotobiotic dog, was designed and fabricated of lightweight stainless steel. This "T" shaped chamber is 20-40 inches wide, 96 inches long, and 38-58 inches high. It has two 18-inch diameter entry ports and a pair of gloves mounted beneath each of four plate glass windows. The isolator rests on a 12-inch high stainless steel pallet and is moved about the laboratory by a portable hydraulic platform lift. It is readily sterilized in an autoclave at temperatures up to 285 degrees F (140 degrees C) and can be cleaned and resterilized in less than 8 hours. Although the isolator is more expensive than one made of flexible plastic film, it has the advantages of not being readily punctured and it requires less labor to clean and sterilize between uses. Thus, it is more secure and, in the long run, more economical.
一种可在大型无菌犬身上进行复杂操作的隔离器，由轻质不锈钢设计制造。这个“T”形腔室宽20至40英寸，长96英寸，高38至58英寸。它有两个直径18英寸的入口端口，在四块平板玻璃窗下方各安装了一副手套。隔离器放置在一个12英寸高的不锈钢托盘上，通过便携式液压平台升降机在实验室移动。它可以在高达285华氏度（140摄氏度）的温度下在高压灭菌器中轻松消毒，并且可以在不到8小时内进行清洁和重新消毒。虽然这种隔离器比由柔性塑料薄膜制成的隔离器更昂贵，但它具有不易被刺破的优点，并且在每次使用之间清洁和消毒所需的劳动力较少。因此，它更安全，从长远来看更经济。
