Plethysmography is a standard method for studying pulmonary function in conscious, spontaneously breathing laboratory subjects. The barometric plethysmography technique measures flow and pressure changes that occur while the subject is breathing, before and after exposure to a drug or other challenges. It is easily adapted to various subject sizes and species, and is often used for longitudinal studies where the subjects are studied for multiple hours on successive experiment days.

emkaPACK5 is a non-invasive telemetry system for the acquisition of ECG*, respiratory endpoints, blood pressure, temperature, and postural activity from freely moving, single or group housed large animals such as dogs, primates, sheep, minipigs and more (horses, cows etc.). Allowing the simultaneous evaluation of cardiovascular and pulmonary measurements without confounding effects of surgery or anesthesia, it is widely used in drug development, safety pharmacology and toxicology studies and to investigate cardiovascular, respiratory and neurodegenerative diseases. It is also used for veterinary clinical monitoring, to wirelessly monitor ECG and other parameters during the animal recovery in its natural environment (i.e. barns, stalls, paddocks).

easyTEL+ is a fully implantable digital system, that transmits physiological data from conscious freely moving laboratory animals. It can be remotely managed and configured. Intended for use in preclinical research (primarily toxicology, pharmacology and safety pharmacology studies) and biodefense, the easyTEL+ implants are ideal for large animals > 1 kg. Various models offer the ability to continuously record Biopotential (ECG, EEG, EMG, EOG)*, Blood pressure, Respiration**, Temperature and Acceleration.

The inExpose is designed to operate under a standard fume hood, and distinguishes itself by its compact size and high level of integration. Its modularity and integration permits both nose-only and/or whole body exposure of rodents, as well as automated generation of cigarette smoke and aerosols. The small form factor reduces direct and indirect costs, and low internal volumes also minimize unintended dilution of precious compounds.

emkaPACK4G is a non-invasive telemetry system for the acquisition of ECG*, respiratory endpoints, blood pressure, temperature, and postural activity from freely moving, single or group housed large animals such as dogs, primates, sheep, minipigs and more (horses, cows etc.).

easyTEL implantable telemetry system transmits physiological data from conscious freely moving small subjects weighing 20 g or more, single-housed in a cage. Physiological measurements are captured by a transmitter surgically implanted and wirelessly transmitted to a receiver, placed under the cage.

Plethysmography is a standard method for studying pulmonary function in laboratory rodents. The barometric plethysmography technique measures flow and pressure changes that occur while the subject is breathing, before and after exposure to a drug or other challenges. It is easily adapted to various subject sizes and species, and is often used for longitudinal studies where the subjects are studied for multiple hours on successive experiment days.

Especially designed for mice, rats, guinea-pig and rabbits, our perfusion systems are used in pharmacological research and Toxicology, to investigate liver, kidney or mesenteric beds vascular activity and physiology, in response to drug challenges. The system provides heated, oxygenated, and nutrient-rich perfusate to the organ with or without drug administration and electrical stimulation.
