The uncomplicated way to monitor rodent activity over several days from their home cage without manual effort. Based only on weight analysis, Bioseb's ACTIVMETER is an innovative actimeter that measures accurately Activity and Locomotion of rodents (mice and rats) whatever the lights conditions.
Presentation
Bioseb has developed a really simple-to-use and miniature actimetry system. The instrument uses weight to measure the locomotion and includes exhaustive functions to quantify rodent activity over short or long periods of time. The actimeter is usually set over up to 48 hours to quantify the activity over the circadian cycle.
With a very competitive pricing for 1 to 8 cages, it is a 'must' when you need to simply quantify the locomotor phenotype of your mice and rats. The ACTIVMETER allows the accurate measurement of the rodent's activity in its familiar environment using the animal's ‘Home Cage' (including grid, pellets and bottle), and it can also be used in any other kind of environment (open field, etc.).
Rearing detection.
BIOSEB introduces an innovative new technology for detecting animal rearing events in the home cage. Positioned outside the cage, the 3D sensor(s) (1 or 2, depending on the selected configuration) provide accurate monitoring of vertical activity throughout the cage.
Two configurations are available to meet different experimental requirements:
Standard Configuration
Rearing detection in the central area of the cage using a single 3D sensor positioned along the long side of the cage.
