Accurate. Flexible. Portable. Introducing the TM BioImpedance Spectroscopy (BIS): The Ultimate for Body Composition and Fluid Status. Now Available for Animal Research. ImpediVET: Supreme accuracy and precision using BIS. Accurate. Validation studies confirm that bioimpedance spectroscopy correlates highly with DEXA and reference methods providing you with accurate assessments of Fat Mass, Fat Free Mass, Total Body Water, Intracellular Fluid and Extracellular Fluid. The ImpediVET is a single channel, tetra polar bioimpedance spectrscopy (BIS) device that scans 256 frequencies between 4 kHz and 1000 kHz in less than a second. The device utilizes Complex Impedance Plotting to determine total body water (TBW), extracellular fluid (ECF) and intracellular fluid (ICF) from impedance data. Fat-free mass (FFM) and fat mass (FM) are then calculated on the device. Further data analysis can be undertaken in the supporting software included with device. The ImpediVet can be used on multiple species, with use of preprogrammed species information and flexibility to enter user-defined species information. ImpediVET can be used on both large and small animal species.
