The end result is higher-quality data with greater predictive value. Compared to conventional methods, animals implanted with telemetry are free of stress caused by restraint, tethers, and jackets as well as the confounding effects of anesthetics and the infections that often result from skin buttons and exit sites. Better Animal Welfare Better Animal Welfare automatically connotes the three R's of Reduction, Refinement, and Replacement. When animals can't be replaced, implantable telemetry provides one of the most effective tools available for reduction and refinement of animal use in research. Implantable telemetry also provides the most humane means available for monitoring conscious laboratory animals.
Animals are free to move about their home cage while being monitored.
Painful exit sites and uncomfortable jackets and tethers are replaced with a small implanted device. Without close observation, you can't even tell your animals are being monitored. Whether you're in an academic or government laboratory with a charter to increase man's understanding of life processes or a pharmaceuticals laboratory commissioned with screening new life saving compounds for effectiveness and safety, everyone is under intense pressure to be more efficient, creative, productive and faster. The bottom line in today's world is to do more in a shorter time with less. Data Sciences' products can improve your bottom line by helping you to publish more and better quality scientific works, reduce overall costs, and speed your work to completion.
