Animal metabolism monitoring system is a comprehensive monitoring system for animal metabolic indicators. It can monitor food intake, drinking water, and activity in real time. It can also optionally monitor oxygen consumption, CO2 production, and respiratory metabolic rate. The system can realize the separation and collection of animal feces and urine. Optional real-time feces and urine weight monitoring to analyze animal metabolism.
The animal metabolism monitoring system is mainly composed of data acquisition and controller, metabolic cage, environmental cabinet, computer and software.
Features
l Animal metabolic cages and feces and urine collection tubes are made of high-gloss PSU material, which can effectively avoid animal feces and urine hanging on the wall and residue
l Drinking water and trough can be taken out directly, adding feed and water without interrupting the experiment, avoiding disturbing the animals
l With drinking water leakage recovery design, improve the measurement accuracy of drinking water volume, and avoid the impact on urine collection
l Modular design, functions can be flexibly added or subtracted according to needs
l Independent controller, the number of channels can be flexibly expanded
l It has a refrigeration module for the feces and urine collector, which can undergo cryopreservation process
Application field
Nutrition, obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular and other endocrine and metabolic related diseases research, kinesiology, physiology and other life science fields.
