Transgenic Animal Genotyping and Phenotyping Core

Cardiovascular COBRE Core B

Overview of Services

Core B aims to establish and operate a centralized facility that provides services, advice, training, and technical support for evaluating transgenic animal genotyping and cardiovascular phenotyping research. Operations of a centralized facility is to provide an infrastructure for the success of cardiovascular research and facilitate the development of novel drugs for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Major Cardiovascular Phenotyping techniques offered by this core are continuous blood pressure, heart rate, ECG monitoring by radio telemetry system, in vivo calcium imaging & optogenetics in live free-moving mice, echocardiography, laser doppler blood flow recording.

Service list

Name	Description	Price
Radio telemetry blood pressure, heart rate, ECG monitoring system	Pricing is per hour.	Inquire
Refurbished DSI PhysioTel® ETA-F10 Transmitter for Mice	Researchers use DSI’s PhysioTel® ETA-F10 transmitter to measure biopotential (ECG, EEG or EMG), temperature and activity data in mice. The ETA-F10 is the smallest of the single channel biopotential implant offered by DSI. The ETA-F10 is most commonly used for cardiovascular research, where ECG and heart rate data are desired; other uses include the collection of EEG data for central nervous system (CNS) applications. Similar to other biopotential transmitters, the ETA-F10 is completely implantable with flexible leads that extend from the transmitter body and serve as sensing electrodes. Pricing is per unit.
