Artificial Canine Intestinal Fluid – BZ516
Product Code: BZ516
Manufacturer: Biochemazone™
Available Pack Sizes: 100 mL, 200 mL, 500 mL, 1 L
Custom Bulk Quantities Available
Product Overview
Biochemazone™ Artificial Canine Intestinal Fluid BZ516 is a laboratory-formulated synthetic simulant that replicates the physicochemical environment of the canine small intestinal lumen. This fluid mimics the neutral to mildly alkaline pH range, electrolyte balance, and surfactant-rich composition of intestinal fluid found in dogs. Designed for in vitro testing, veterinary research, dissolution studies, and medical device evaluation, BZ516 provides a safe, reproducible, and non-biological alternative to animal-derived intestinal contents.
The formulation supports controlled experimentation in drug solubility and dissolution testing, gastrointestinal absorption studies, and digestive process simulations without the variability and ethical concerns associated with biological samples.
Key Features & Benefits
✅ Biologically Relevant pH Profile – Simulates the normal small intestinal pH seen in canine digestive tracts, optimized for research and formulation testing (PMC)
✅ Reproducible & Standardized – Consistent composition eliminates variability inherent in aspirated biological fluids
✅ Non-Biological & Safe – Free from enzymes or pathogens; ideal for laboratory use
✅ Ready-to-Use – Pre-formulated and quality controlled for immediate use
✅ Customizable Options – Adjust bile salt levels, buffer components, and surfactants to match specific research conditions
