Telemetry for mice

easyTEL

easyTEL is a fully implantable telemetry system, that transmits physiological data from conscious freely moving small subjects weighing 20 g or more, single-housed.

Intended for use in preclinical research, easyTEL-S size implants are ideal for mice and offer the ability to continuously record Biopotential (ECG, EEG, EMG, EOG)* , Core Body Temperature and Activity.

*Electrocardiogram (ECG), electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyogram (EMG), electrooculogram (EOG)

Configurations & Extensions

Basic system

A typical setup includes:

Implants: to capture physiological measurements
Receivers: For mice, one receiver per implant is placed below the cage, to receive physiological signals wirelessly transmitted
A computer: equipped with IOX2 acquisition software
An easyMATRIX3: Linked to the computer, capable of connecting to up to 16 telemetry receivers and 8 analog inputs (Up to 4 easyMATRIX3 connect to a single computer). easyMATRIX3 contains its own ambient pressure transducer, requiring no external ambient pressure reference monitor.

Analog signal

Up to 8 analog signals can be simultaneously acquired and synchronized with signals coming from the implant. Additional transducers are therefore added to the basic system:

Biopotential electrodes, for ECG, EEG, or EMG recording (signal is amplified by easyMATRIX3)
Strain gauge transducers (differential pressure or blood pressure transducers), powered and amplified by easyMATRIX3
Analog signals already amplified (connected through Lemo-BNC adapters)
