Cost effective with a flexible setup and allows group housing. Minimally invasive and simple to implant.
Ideal for use in studies on small caged animals when a detailed and accurate heart rate and temperature profile is needed in real time.
Key features
Flexible setup, allows group housing
Transmits and logs in memory for enhanced reliability
Leadless and small (3.3g) and long battery life – typically 2.5 months
ECG derived heart rate, including data verification
Guarantees accuracy and performance
Real time telemetry for small caged animals
Star-Oddi‘s telemetry system is designed for small caged animals, such as rodents. The system is not suitable for large and/or free-ranging animals.
Application
The transmitting logger is ideal for a variety of studies on small caged animals, including: baseline measurements, measuring immune response to infection, testing vaccine efficacy and safety pharmacology and measuring physiological changes.
Flexible, simple setup which allows group housing
The telemetry system is ideal for those who need a flexible system that is simple in set-up and cost effective. One of the benefits of the system is that it allows group housing of the animals, technically up to 10 animals per cage, as well as the possibility to move the system between locations without data interruption.
Logs in memory for enhanced reliability
In addition to providing wireless data in real time the logger logs all measurements in its internal memory. This adds to the flexibility of the system and prevents data loss if connection is lost or the animal is removed from the cage.
