7087 Soft Cob Bedding

"The All-in-One Environmental Enrichment Bedding"

Teklad 's 7087 Soft Cobs Enrichment Bedding material is a special blend of Teklad Corncob Bedding (1/4 inch) and our new Teklad Diamond Soft cellulose bedding products.  The unique combination of these two high-quality bedding products provides excellent absorbency, superior odor control and environmental enrichment, all in one convenient package.  Both internal and independent studies have demonstrated that laboratory mice will actively separate and utilize the two different components in Soft Cobs to construct nests.

How It Works

The corncob material permits improved airflow throughout the entire layer of bedding, allowing for increased evaporation of liquids.  This aids in the reduction of ammonia. The particles of Diamond Soft cellulose bedding provide increased absorbency, and more importantly, provide material that is used for constructing nesting areas within the cage unit. Nesting may improve breeding performance.

• Specifically engineered for superior performance when used in ventilated caging systems and isolators.
• Eliminates the need for adding additional enrichment or nesting materials.
• Lasts longer saving labor costs.
• Low dust content.
• Flows readily in bulk bedding handling systems.
• Available in both autoclavable and in a certified and irradiated formats.
• Non-certified Soft Cobs are also screened mulpitle times every year for potential contaminants.

Packaging

• 7087 Soft Cobs is packaged in 25 pound autoclavable bags
• 7987C.25 Certified/Irradiated Soft Cobs are packaged in a 25 pound poly-lined inner cap sac, protected inside a three-ply protective outer bag, to ensure purity and integrity post-irradiation
