The Impedivet, is an animal friendly tetra-polar bioimpedance spectrometer that has been validated against accepted methodology. Traditional methods are time consuming, cumbersome and require traumatic animal procedures including sacrifice using certain techniques. The currently accepted NMR methodologies are extremely cost prohibitive. The Impedivet is a minimally invasive and relatively inexpensive alternative method for accurately obtaining these critical body composition values Search for Product in current catalog
The Impedivet, is an animal friendly tetra-polar bioimpedance spectrometer that has been validated against accepted methodology. Traditional methods are time consuming, cumbersome and require traumatic animal procedures including sacrifice using certain techniques. The currently accepted NMR methodologies are extremely cost prohibitive. The Impedivet is a minimally invasive and relatively inexpensive alternative method for accurately obtaining these critical body composition values:
• Total Body Water(TBW) • Extracellular Fluid(ECF) • Intracellular Fluid(ICF) • Fat Free Mass(FFM) • Fat Mass(FM)
Years of development have gone into this technology finally culminating a combination of techniques now fully validated for rats in this one system. Software upgrades will soon be available for other species. This system is exclusively available from Harvard Apparatus.
