Temperature Measurements UNDISTURBED CORE BODY TEMPERATURE The DST temperature loggers are well suited for recording core body temperature throughout your research with no disturbance to the animal subject. This makes them ideal for a variety of studies including baseline measurements, immune response to infection, vaccine efficacy and safety pharmacology. FOR ALL TYPES OF LABORATORY STUDIES Star-Oddi’s DST loggers come in a wide range of sizes, the smallest weighing only one gram, making it possible to record temperature in a wide range of animal sizes. Animal housing, cage type and other...

Heart Rate Measurements LONG TERM HEART RATE AND BODY TEMPERATURE The DST HRT loggers simultaneously measure long term heart rate and core body temperature. This makes it possible to identify correlation between heart rate and body temperature as well as a variety of physiological changes, including cardiac and thermoregulatory effects, stress response and metabolic changes. LEADLESS SINGLE CHANNEL ECG The heart rate is derived from a leadless single channel ECG in which the electrodes are part of the housing material, making the logger especially easy to implant. To calculate the heart...

Activity Measurements OVERVIEW OF CHANGES IN ACTIVITY OVER TIME Measuring acceleration derived activity gives researchers the chance to get an overall view of changes in the study animals’ activity over time. The DST activity loggers measure acceleration in three dimensions, in relation to earth‘s gravity field. IDENTIFY CORRELATION BETWEEN HEART RATE AND ACTIVITY The logger comes with the option of either two or three parameters: activity and temperature or activity, heart rate and temperature. Looking at activity, heart rate and temperature together gives researchers an opportunity to...

LEADLESS AND MINIMALLY INVASIVE With the completely leadless design of the biocompatible loggers the implantation surgery becomes minimally invasive which facilitates quick recovery. STRESS-FREE ACCURATE MEASUREMENTS The Star-Oddi loggers are small implantable recorders that measure heart rate, temperature and activity with high accuracy and store real-time data in their internal memory. All loggers are delivered with calibration certificates, traceable to Fluke’s CalNet standard, to ensure compliance with good laboratory practices (GLP). LONG BATTERY LIFE AND REUSABLE The same logger can...

HIGH PERFORMANCE - SMALL SIZE Star-Oddi has over 20 years of experience making small, high performing loggers for all types of laboratory animals, wild animals and pharmaceutical production. COMMITTED TO PROVIDING SMALL RELIABLE LOGGERS We are always focused on making long lasting loggers in the smallest possible sizes, never compromising on reliability. COMMITMENT TO THE 3Rs The 3Rs ethical framework is implemented by Star-Oddi in its implantable DST logger series. Being able to measure core body temperature, heart rate and activity without human interference reduces the stress placed on...
