→The parts ordered
* A [[Pulse Oximeter]] which are much cheaper than if you purchase them with the AltoLab.
* Bulk CO<SUB>2</SUB> scrubber. Each 3 pound bag is $7.80 + $10 shipping.
** I ordered 'JorVet J-553 Soda Lime', produced by Jorgensen Laboratories. I got mine from shopmedvet.com, and they tend to change their URLs so you may have to search for 'soda lime' on their site. As of 6/22/11 the link http://www.shopmedvet.com/product/soda-lime-3-lb-bag/jorgensen-products-anesthesia-products worked. I'm told that the original CO<SUB>2</SUB> scrubber in the AltoLab system is Spherasorb 405.
* After some time, I ordered extra anti-bacterial filters, which cost less than $5 from a medical supplier. I got mine from [[http://www.allegromedical.com/respiratory-therapy-c534/main-flow-bacterial-viral-filter-p547468.html Allegro Medical]]
Total cost was $306 (excluding the unused scrubbers). An alternative would be to buy
* The [[Pulse Oximeter]] for $50
With the scrubber, that works out as $214.80
