Precision Controlled Substance Tracking for Exotic Animal Practices
Small patients can mean very small doses. CSI-360 pairs precision scale options with density-based measurements, so even the smallest transaction is weighed, documented, and tied to the patient.
- 0.001 g Scale Options
- Ultra Low Volume Doses
CSI-360's Precision Scale Options Are Perfect for Your Exotic Animal Practice
Avian, reptile, and small-mammal patients can need very small doses. CSI-360 is built to measure and document small dispenses efficiently and accurately.
-
Scale Options for Very Small Quantities
Choose a precision-scale configuration with readability down to 0.001 g, matched to the containers and medications your practice tracks.
-
Density-Based Liquid Measurement
CSI-360 uses the before-and-after weight to calculate the amount removed, so the record reflects every drop that left the vial.
-
Patient and Container Identification
Patient lookup links the animal while a unique RFID label identifies the vial or tracked item, so each small dose stays tied to the animal it was drawn for.
-
A Complete Record Before the Next Patient
The user, patient, item, amount, notes, and time are saved as the transaction happens, so there's no end-of-shift reconstruction to piece together.
Match the Syringe to the Dose
Small doses are very difficult to draw accurately. A published study found that draws less than 20% of the syringe's capacity can lead to errors exceeding 5%.
- Partial draws add tolerance — a 0.5 mL draw from a 5 mL syringe carries ±0.08 mL of ISO tolerance.
- The record comes from the vial — CSI-360 weighs the container before and after, so the recorded volume is accurate regardless of syringe fill or hub loss.

Add CSI-360 to the Storage You Already Use
CSI-360 combines electronic access, RFID item identification, a digital scale, and touch-screen software at the cabinet. It can be added to most DEA-compliant storage or supplied as a complete system.
- Confirm the fit — Tell us the make and model of your cabinet, safe, refrigerator, or freezer.
- Keep patient lookup at the cabinet — Staff can select records read in from Shepherd, Vetspire, Digitail, and more.
- Review reports in one place — Inventory, activity, and user-access history stay together in CSI-360.
Exotic-Animal Practice Questions
-
Does CSI-360 offer a scale in the 0.001 g range?
Yes. Compatible precision-scale options with 0.001 g readability are available for configurations that need to resolve very small changes. UID will confirm capacity, readability, containers, and medications before specifying the scale.
-
Does 0.001 g mean the system records 0.001 mL?
No. Grams measure mass and milliliters measure volume. For liquids, CSI-360 uses the medication's density to convert the measured weight difference into a volume. A typical draw is accurate to about 0.002 mL with a high precision scale which is far more accurate than the syringe.
-
Can it support 0.01 mL doses?
Absolutely! With a high precision scale 0.01 mL doses are very accurate, far more accurate than a syringe.
-
Does it work with an exotic-practice PIMS?
CSI-360 reads patients from Shepherd, Vetspire, Digitail, and more. If your practice uses another system, ask UID to confirm the compatibility.
