MouseOx® Murine Pulse Oximeter System from Starr Life Sciences Corp
The World's first and only Pulse Oximeter for mice and rats
Specifications:
Oxygen Saturation (Pulse rates 90 to 900 beats per minute, BPM)
- Measurement Range: 0% to 100% Arterial Blood Oxygen Saturation
- Measurement Resolution: £ 1.5% across entire range
- Measurement Response Time:
Arterial Oxygen Saturation is reported to the user after each heartbeat. Every 0.72 sec, the screen is refreshed to display all the oxygen saturation values measured since the previous screen refresh.

- Measurement Response Time: Respiratory rate is reported to the user every 1.7 seconds. The value reported is the result of a moving average of the rate of breathing for the 10 previous breath rate measurements. Note that the screen still updates at a rate used for the other parameters (0.72 sec), but new breath rate data are presented at a lower rate.
Pulse Distention
A measurement of the distention of the arterial blood vessels between the sensor pads. Provides a non-invasive indication of blood flow.
- Measurement Range: 0 to 800 micrometers, um
- Measurement Resolution: £ 2.4% of measurement
- Measurement Response Time: Pulse distention is reported to the user after each heartbeat. Every 0.72 sec, the screen is refreshed to display all of the pulse distention values measured since the previous screen refresh.
Breathe Distention
- Provides non-invasive indication of the effort a subject requires to generate breath.
- Measurement Range: 0 to 800 micrometers, um
- Measurement Resolution: £ 2.4% of measurement
Measurement Response Time: Breath distention is reported to the user every 1.7 seconds. The value reported is the result of a moving average of the rate of breathing for the 10 previous breath rate measurements. Note that the screen still updates at a rate used for the other parameters (0.72 sec), but new breath distention data are presented at a lower rate.
