Bruker Minispec LF50H

Bruker Minispec LF50H - nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)

Bruker Minispec LF50H - nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)

The Minispec LF50H uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) principles to accurately quantify fat mass, lean tissue mass and free fluid mass in conscious mice.

This method is the gold standard for fat and lean tissue measurement in vivo in the pharmaceutic industry, and diabetes and obesity research institutes worldwide. Very commonly used in mechanism studies on metabolic syndrome.

Features

  • Non-invasive and no anaesthesia required
  • Rapid acquisition (approx. 1 min)
  • Supports broad weight range (10-60grams)
  • Non-destructive (fat, lean tissue and fluid are not “destroyed” during imaging, ideal for longitudinal studies)
  • Easy to use
