Freezing Time for a 25 gram cartridge (for most used liquid freezing tips):
- DST60 (Standard Tip): 540 sec
1 standard tip, 60 µm, L=10 mm, spray freezing Ø1-6 mm - D1 (Dermatology Tip): 780 sec
60 µm, L=22 mm, spray freezing Ø1-6 mm - D2 (Dermatology Tip): 375 sec
80 µm, L=22 mm, spray freezing Ø7-18 mm - D3 (Dermatology Tip): 200 sec
100 µm, L=22 mm, spray freezing Ø9-22 mm
- Controlled Precision and Tissue Safety
Dinitrogen oxide (N₂O) provides a moderate freezing temperature (-89°C / -128°F), allowing for precise targeting of abnormal tissues while minimizing the risk of damaging surrounding healthy tissue. This level of control is crucial when working on delicate areas or small lesions in animals, ensuring effective treatments without over-freezing.
- Minimal Discomfort and Faster Recovery
The gentler freezing action of medical dinitrogen oxide causes less pain and inflammation post-treatment compared to harsher cryogens like liquid nitrogen. This leads to quicker recovery times, reducing stress and discomfort for the animal, which is always a priority in veterinary care.
- Portability and Ease of Use
Our Dinitrogen oxide (N₂O) cartridges are extremely easy to handle and apply in a variety of settings, from clinics to fieldwork. Its stable storage requirements and user-friendly application make it a convenient and practical choice for veterinarians on the go.
Summary:
In summary, dinitrogen oxide offers a balanced approach in veterinary cryosurgery by providing controlled, moderate freezing temperatures, which result in more precise, non-invasive treatments, reduced discomfort, and faster recovery times for animals. It is a portable, safer, and user-friendly option for veterinarians, making it particularly advantageous when compared to more extreme cryogens like liquid nitrogen.
