Star-Oddi product range

The Star-Oddi DST temperature sensor product family for the biomedical industry features two different sizes:

Nano (17mm x 6mm, 1g) - Ideal for mice and other small research animals

Micro (25,4mm x 8,3mm, 3,3g) - Telemetry for real time temperature monitoring available - Suitable as implants for rats, ferrets and other larger research animals

Easy to use

Using the DST loggers is quick and simple. The Star-Oddi probes are supported by user-friendly application software (Mercury) and a communication box which works as an interface between the logger and the computer. The logger is started after the user has selected the start time and sampling interval through the application software. Then the logger is ready to be implanted or deployed. Implantation of the probe requires minor surgery. Temperature data can be retrieved in real time using the company‘s telemetry solution. After the probe is retrieved from the test subject, the recorded data can be uploaded in the application software, where the results can be analyzed in graphic and tabular form. When data has been retrieved the logger can easily be sterilized and reset for new recordings.
