QMR06 is a quantitative NMR system designed specifically for awake, small laboratory animal body composition measuring. With no prior preparation or anesthetic needed, the QMR06 is effective for user friendly quantitative analysis of lean mass, fat mass, and water content.
QMR quantifies these parameters based on the differences in relaxation times between lean, fat, and water. The QMR06 is ideal for mice and rats up to 800g and isolated tissue up to 6g (090H-PRO). Permanent magnet technology makes the system low maintenance and easy to operate. The QMR06 is suitable for longitudinal studies due to the non-invasive nature measurement acquisition. Additionally, there is an optional imaging mode available for capturing 2D images of fat distribution.
The QMR06 provides the following measurements:
– Lean mass (g)
– Fat mass (g)
– Water content (g)
Features & Benefits
- Zero preparation required:QMR is a no hassle method for quantifying body composition with no prior preparation needed such as anesthesia.
- Awake animal measuring:Without need for anesthetic, you can measure lean mass, fat mass, and water content in awake animals.
- Permanent magnet technology:With permanent magnet technology operation and maintenance is simplified with the QMR06.
- Non-invasive:With a non-invasive approach for body composition measurements, the QMR06 is ideal for longitudinal studies.
- Optional imaging mode:The QMR06 has an optional mode to acquire 2D images of the spatial distribution of fat mass.
