Product Description
The animal activity monitoring system is a functional animal energy metabolism monitoring system module. The animal experimental chamber is a conventional rat cage, designed with a home cage to meet the requirements of animals for a long time and can realize 24-hour monitoring.
The Animal Metabolic & Behavioral Monitoring System provides a highly flexible modular solution for long-term monitoring of metabolism and related behaviors in small laboratory animals. The system can simultaneously control various functional parameters in the cage in one software, such as respiratory entropy metabolism monitoring, feeding monitoring, drinking water monitoring, weight monitoring, XYZ autonomous activity monitoring, running wheel activity monitoring, respiration monitoring, intake Access control, physiological telemetry monitoring modules, etc., can also be professionally customized according to user needs. A standardized breeding environment can objectively monitor the metabolism and behavior of animals in their natural living conditions.
Animal Metabolic Monitoring System
Multi-channel monitoring with scalability. The types of monitoring function modules can be expanded according to user needs.
Oxygen monitoring uses a zirconia probe, while carbon dioxide monitoring uses an infrared spectrum probe, which is stable and highly precise.
High-precision electronic sensors monitor drinking water, food intake, and weight with an accuracy of 0.1g.
It functions to monitor and collect respiratory entropy data in real time, and each cage is equipped with a separate set of O2 and CO2 probes. It is used to monitor the respiratory entropy of experimental animals in real time, and the monitoring rate is 1 second/time.
Spontaneous activity monitoring adopts an XYZ three-dimensional optical frame to monitor rats' and mice's horizontal activity, standing times, position preference information, circadian rhythm monitoring, sleep analysis, etc. in real time. The user can freely select the monitoring area range.
The real-time measurement mode can achieve real-time monitoring in the energy metabolism module, the diet and drinking water weight module, and the XYZ three-dimensional activity module. During the experiment, all cages record all data continuously simultaneously, providing the same time point for later data statistics. To achieve the unity of data in time.
The data analysis software has functions such as data processing, display, experimental design and control, etc. It can display the time allocation for analyzing the behavioral spectrum of experimental animals, animal activity position and intensity, animal activity, body temperature, heart rhythm, and respiratory metabolism analysis.
