Body Composition Analyser of Live Animal
Product Features
- Compact, integrated design: Smaller overall dimensions and lighter weight, requiring minimal footprint.
- Intelligent data analysis and processing software: Features voice and graphical prompts, secure and private experimental data management, and instant analysis and export of data.
- Unique hybrid pulse sequence design: Optimized pulse sequence parameters allow for the simultaneous acquisition of multiple sample characteristics in a single measurement, ensuring high detection accuracy.
- Safe and reliable measurement process: Measurements are conducted on conscious, live mice without inducing stress; the system enables quantitative analysis of all body components (fat, lean tissue, and water) and supports monitoring across the mouse's entire lifespan.

Application Examples
The DX-BCA is an analytical instrument designed to measure body composition in mice. Based on the principle of low-field time-domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR), it quantifies fat, lean tissue, and water content in live mice. By integrating quantitative NMR technology with multivariate mathematical analysis, the instrument enables real-time detection and continuous monitoring of conscious mice, offering advantages such as speed, accuracy, stability, and safety.
