PhysioTel® Transmitter Specifications

Scientists are able to study a number of physiological parameters in laboratory mice and small and large animals using DSI PhysioTel® Transmitters. DSI offers four series of PhysioTel® implantable transmitters to measure different parameters:

  • PhysioTel® PA series transmitters measure pressure (P) and activity (A) in mice, small animals and large animals.
  • PhysioTel® TA series transmitters measure temperature (T) and activity (A) in mice, small animals and large animals.
  • PhysioTel® EA, CA, ETA and CTA series transmitters measure biopotentials (E, C) such as ECG, EEG and EMG as well as temperature (T) and activity (A) in mice, small animals and large animals.
  • PhysioTel® Multiplus series transmitters measure combinations of pressure (P), biopotentials (E, X, C), temperature (T) and activity (A).
