Multi-channel metabolic monitoring system for small animals

Our company has developed the most innovative animal metabolism and behavior monitoring system, which can synchronously monitor animal food consumption, drinking water consumption, activity volume, activity trajectory, standing behavior in real time. The obtained data is automatically stored in a computer, making it convenient for users to conduct biological statistical analysis. The independently designed metabolism cage can automatically separate and collect animal excrement and urine, and the collected excrement is kept at low temperature, It can effectively prevent the evaporation of water from excreta, and the temperature can be set by the user at low temperatures, with a temperature display accuracy of 0.1 degrees.

Description Parameters Resources

The independently designed metabolic cage adopts a split structure, with each component designed in a buckle style. The material is transparent food grade PMP, which is corrosion-resistant, has a beautiful appearance, and has a smooth surface that is not easy to stick. It is easy for users to disassemble and clean, and the food trough and water bottle are fixed on the weight sensor as a whole. The food trough and water bottle do not shake, ensuring the accuracy of experimental data, which is more accurate than traditional metabolic cages. The urine and fecal box adopts a buckle design, making it easy for users to access and place.

Product features:

1. The host is made of aluminum alloy material and is equipped with a 5-inch touch screen

2. Supports up to 64 metabolic cages for simultaneous analysis

3. The unique funnel and conical design of the independent rat metabolism cage ensures the separation and collection of feces and urine. Urine will not be contaminated or enter the fecal collection tube, so the separation is direct and complete, and the result will be an accurate and trustworthy sample;

4. The feeding room is located outside the cage to prevent animals from being trapped or resting inside;

5. Real time synchronous monitoring of animal food consumption, drinking water consumption, activity level, standing behavior, and providing curve charts and XY activity trajectories.

6. The collection funnel and separation cone use unique design and non adsorption PMP materials (completely different from traditional glass, stainless steel, or ordinary plastic, without wall hanging or adsorption) to ensure direct and complete separation of feces and urine;

7. The urine and fecal collection tubes are made of PMP material and can be replaced at any time during the experiment;

8. The activity volume adopts a combination of heat source sensors and infrared radiation, with higher accuracy

9. The collected excrement is kept at a low temperature, which can effectively prevent the evaporation of water from the excrement. The low temperature retention temperature can be set by the user, and the temperature display accuracy can reach 0.1 ° C.

10. The independently designed metabolic cage adopts a split structure, and each component adopts a snap design for easy disassembly and cleaning by users
