Small nuclear magnetic minispec LF series

Brooke TD - NMR based small nuclear magnetic body composition analyzer can accurately measure all live mice and rat meat, fat, and the liquid.

The body composition analyzer has a new and striking key features: because animals are carefully processed without using any anesthetic, and established a new standard for longitudinal study.

Since early 2001 for the first time, the small nuclear magnetic live mouse composition analyzer (LF50) has quickly gain market recognition, in the research laboratory for phenotypic characterization, screening, and mice, non-destructive and non-invasive powerful nondestructive noninvasive analysis tools in mice.It has become a living mice fat and lean meat measurement industry standard, in many large pharmaceutical companies, diabetes and obesity research institutions and universities have installed.

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) method is one of the most useful material analysis of non-destructive techniques.By nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) for non-invasive examination of the body is very extensive, there are many useful applications, particularly with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS).TD - NMR using similar NMR technology, through the same physical selection rules provide for fat tissue, lean organization and the analysis of the free liquid, these rules are caused in the MRI contrast.Based on the relative relaxation time, between fat and muscle tissue contrast is very high.

Small nuclear magnet composition analyzer in time domain based on nuclear magnetic resonance (TD - NMR).It captured and analyzed the whole sample volume for all the protons in the TD - NMR signal, and provides three related components: fat, free fluid and lean organization value.This magnetic resonance imaging (mri) technology provides researchers with the chance of repeated measurements in the animal life, has the following advantages:

• Rapid analysis: measuring time less than 2 minutes, don't need to prepare the samples
  
• Economic program: no consumables, retained in the study of the expensive experimental animals
• For mice LF50 60 grams of the following animals can be analyzed
• Used for mice LF50H can be analyzed by 60 grams of animals
• LF90II used in mice and rats, analysis of up to 700 grams of animals
• LF110 for mice and rats, analysis the most about 1 kg of animals
• Reduce animal pressure: no need anesthesia;Remained intact animals can start measuring
• Due to reduced risk for animal health, support more frequent testing
• Compared with DEXA (X-ray) method, has better accuracy and precision

• The whole animal body composition analysis
• non-invasive
• Harmless to animals
• Without an anesthetic
• Analysis of short time (a few minutes)
• Allow higher animal test times
• High reproducibility
• Support real longitudinal study
• Careful animal treatment

• Mice maximum quality: about 50 grams (about 80 ml of volume).For large animal weighs 650 grams, it is recommended to use small nuclear magnetic LF90.
• Container to the largest diameter in mice: 48 mm
• The accuracy and precision: about 1% of the total mass.
• Using standard, animals, or calibration according to the special requirements of users.
• Measurement frequency: 7.5 MHz
• As an alternative standard system: horizontal contact magnets
• User friendly interface, the operation is very simple in measuring series.
• Used for data acquisition of Microsoft Windows system combined with Microsoft Access database, to allow secure data management, without human users
• Through the ISO 9001:2000 certification
• Comply with CE standard
