Veinlite® R Vein Finder
Precision Vascular Access for Mice & Rats in Research

The Veinlite R transforms vascular access in rodent research models, making vein and artery identification in mice and rats faster, easier, and more humane than ever before. Specifically engineered for laboratory animal research applications, this innovative device eliminates the guesswork from tail vein injections, arterial blood draws, and catheter placement—improving research outcomes while reducing animal stress and technical variability.

Purpose-Built for Research Excellence

Finding and accessing veins and arteries in mice and rats has never been easier. Veinlite R is leading the way to better intravenous and intra-arterial access in animal research, delivering the precision and reliability that high-quality scientific studies demand.

Tri-Color Light Technology for Complete Vascular Mapping

Three Specialized Light Modes:

• Green Light - Optimized for artery visualization
• Orange Light - Enhanced vein identification
• White Exam Light - General examination and animal assessment

This multi-spectral approach enables researchers and technicians to quickly differentiate between arterial and venous structures, select optimal access sites, and perform procedures with unprecedented accuracy.

Integrated Tail Stabilization System

The included tail adapters make stabilizing and securing rodent tails during vascular access effortless. This innovative feature eliminates the fumbling and repositioning that wastes time and causes unnecessary animal movement, enabling smooth, controlled procedures that improve first-attempt success rates.

Instant Access, Better Outcomes

With Veinlite R, technicians can instantly identify veins and arteries, secure the tail, and make an efficient stick. No wasted time, no wasted supplies, no unnecessary trauma to research animals—just clean, confident vascular access that supports reproducible scientific results.

One-Handed Operation for Laboratory Efficiency

Integrated Controls: Color switching and brightness adjustment are built directly into the device, enabling one-handed operation that leaves your other hand free for animal handling, restraint, or injection.

Compact & Portable: Powered by a single AAA battery, Veinlite R features a compact form factor that fits comfortably in hand and easily stores in lab coat pockets or on procedure carts.

Lanyard-Ready Design: Attach the included lanyard to the cap for instant access anytime—perfect for busy research facilities where technicians move between procedure rooms, housing areas, and workstations.

Research-Grade Benefits

Improved First-Attempt Success: Reduce failed injection attempts that compromise data quality, require additional animals, or necessitate protocol amendments.

Enhanced Animal Welfare: Minimize stress, trauma, and discomfort for research animals by achieving successful vascular access on the first attempt—supporting 3Rs principles (Replacement, Reduction, Refinement).

Reduced Technical Variability: Standardize vascular access procedures across technicians and studies, improving experimental consistency and data reliability.

Time Efficiency: Accelerate research workflows by eliminating extended searches for suitable vessels and reducing repeated access attempts.

Cost Savings: Minimize wasted supplies from failed procedures and reduce the number of animals needed due to technical failures.

Protocol Compliance: Meet IACUC standards for minimizing animal distress and using the most refined techniques available.
