Medical gases for improving animal health at the Pirbright Institute

 

 

The Pirbright Institute, formerly known as The Institute of Animal Health, is transforming its Surrey campus to establish itself as the foremost state-of-the-art institute in the world for fundamental and applied research on some of the most devastating viruses of farmed animals.

Phase one of the site redevelopment was to construct a high bio-containment laboratory complex. This second phase includes facilities to support research into poultry diseases.

Having successfully supplied and installed gas systems for phase one, Medical Gases will now supply and install piped distribution for carbon dioxide, a carbon dioxide gas detection system and a piped liquid nitrogen system to an internal dewar filling facility with oxygen depletion alarm system to serve research areas for this second phase.
