DSI’s PhysioTel HD implants allow researchers to focus on
what matters — research.


Maximize battery life with Battery On-Time Counter
• Dynamic battery life updates to assist with efficient study planning
and re-use of implants.

Fast study start-up with Auto-Calibration
• Save time with auto-calibration and eliminate human error during
manual entry of offsets.

Enhance data security with Animal ID
• Have confidence that the data collected is from the intended animal.

HD-S02 HD-X02 Comparison

Small Animal Neuroscience

The HD-S02 and HD-X02 implants are capable of recording two biopotential channels, typically EEG and EMG for neuroscience studies. The HD-S02 and HD-X02 are typically used in rats and mice, respectively.

* Implants can measure respiratory rate from pleural pressure, diaphragmatic EMG (it is recommended to acquire ECG with dEMG for filtering out ECG contamination during respiratory rate analysis). **Available in two frequencies: 455 kHz (F0) and 18 MHz (F2). Pair housing capable.
***Sensor often functions for 6-8 weeks; warranty is 4 weeks.
##Available with an external thermistor probe if desired.
