The portable respirometer is a device for measuring the respiratory parameters of large animals. It can directly measure relevant parameters by wearing a mask. It is easy to use and carry.
Product Features
Suitable for larger animals like dogs and Non-human Primates (NHP)
Breathing mask with rubber seal for direct respiratory measurement
LCD Displaying Parameters: Flowrate, Tidal Volume (Vt), Peak Inspiratory Flow (PIF), Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), Inspiratory Time (Ti), Expiratory Time (Te), Minute Ventilation (Mv)
Original data can be stored on a USB drive
Equipped with analysis software, data can be saved in Excel or TXT format (Customization is available catering to customers’ specific requirements)
Test Parameters
Ti: Inspiratory Time (s)
Te: Expiratory Time (s)
PIF: Peak Inspiratory Flow (ml/s)
PEF: Peak Expiratory Flow (ml/s)
F: Flowrate (breaths per minute)
Vt:Tidal Volume(ml)
Mv:Minute Ventilation(ml)
Applications
Researches on various respiratory diseases, such as asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, lung injury, ARDS, lung cancer, etc.
Safety pharmacology: the effect of drugs on the respiratory system
Sleep apnea: monitor animal hypopnea, obstructive apnea, etc.
Environmental Toxicology: The impact of environmental pollutants on animal respiration
Inhalation Toxicology: Toxic effects of toxic substances on the respiratory system
High altitude medicine: The influence of high altitude environment on the respiratory system
Other occasions where respiratory parameters need to be evaluated
