System for detecting the level of discomfort of aquatic animals during experimental studies, with a water tank, a reference electrode placed at one of the sides of the tank, at least one recording electrode placed at another side of the tank, a bio amplifier for amplifying a received bio-signal at the recording electrode, a microprocessor for treating the signals and a low-pass filter for filtering the signals received. The system can provide a precise, quantifiable and specific indication of the level of stress/wellbeing of aquatic animals in normal living conditions as well as in experimental conditions without interfering with the animals' life.

The embodiment of the present invention discloses a kind of monitoring method for drinking behavior of laboratory mice, and its system and device, and thus obtains raw data of the drinking behavior of mice, and then stores the raw data; as well as conducts data filtering on the raw data to filter out false data of jitter from the raw data, wherein, the false data of jitter consists of the data triggered by measurement signal transient and jitter caused by accidentally touch of the mice body, and their exploratory action; and then completes index statistics and analysis of the raw data filtered out false data of jitter, and thus forms indicator data, as well as stores the indicator data; after that, the indicator data is displayed in classification of real-time data, historical data and report data. The present invention utilizes the serial filtering mechanism of data filtering and matching, and thus reduces the amount of invalid trigger data, and there is no accumulated performance loss of data processing, as well as has efficient, accurate and real processing capabilities to process experimental batch data, and can provide reliable and objective statistical indicators to laboratory personnel, as well as may detect multiple laboratory mice at the same time, and thus, greatly improves the efficiency of the experiment and the accuracy of the experimental results.

According to various embodiments, systems and methods for determining carbon dioxide detection in arthropods. An embodiment may include determining at least one resonant frequency of an arthropod sensory organ and an absorption spectrum of at least one odorant. A frequency filter may be applied to the absorption spectrum to eliminate frequencies below a given intensity value. Of the frequencies remaining from the absorption spectrum, those frequencies corresponding to relative peaks in absorption intensity may be selected. An olfactory chord including a group of the selected frequencies corresponding to the relative peaks in absorption intensity with at least one specific frequency that matches the at least one resonant frequency of the arthropod sensory organ. Additionally, at least one radiation source may be configured to emit electromagnetic radiation corresponding to the olfactory chord.

A device is provided for studying the ability of at least one mouse to find its bearings in a maze, the device including a plurality of houses distributed around a central agora and in which at least one stimulator allows the at least one mouse to carry out certain activities and/or satisfy certain primary needs. Each house further includes at least one sensor for measuring the activity of the mouse in the house, and more particularly its use of the at least one stimulator. Finally, a sensor makes it possible to detect and measure the movements of each mouse in the device. Quantitative parameters originating from these measurements thus make it possible to highlight the quality of the geographical memory of the at least one mouse.

A device for detecting and recording animal behavior may include at least one corral that defines a contained field, the base surface of the at least one corral being sensitive to the animal's footprint. The device also includes an image capturing device that cooperates with the base surface to capture both a profile of the animal's full footprint and a profile of the animal's toe print when the animal is standing on its toes. In some embodiments, the device is capable of providing a stimulus to the animal and observing the resulting behavior of the animal via the image capturing device.

The present invention relates to an unrestrained neural signal monitoring device and system configured to enable an unrestrained test by being mounted on a living test subject such as a mouse, the device comprising a neural signal detector detecting a neural signal of the test subject such as a brain wave, a first light emitting part outputting a colored light for position tracking, a second light emitting part outputting a colored light for neural signal display, and a controller for controlling the first and second light emitting parts in response to the neural signal detected through the neural signal detector. Because movement of a test subject is unrestrained, a natural activity of the test subject is enabled to thereby prevent an interactive behavior of a group from being restrained.

Proposed are a functional improvement evaluation apparatus and a nerve cell culture apparatus of model animals capable of performing feedback control, even to mammalian model animals, based on biosignals in the same manner has humans based on a relatively simple configuration. The present invention comprises a biosignal detection unit which is mounted on a central side above an intended in vivo site of a mammalian model animal and/or a peripheral side below an intended in vivo site of a mammalian model animal, and detects a biosignal resulting from a biological activity of the model animal, a control unit which causes a driving source to generate power according to an intent of the model animal based on the biosignal detected by the biosignal detection unit, and a motion transmission mechanism which is connected to a holding part for holding a foot of each leg of the model animal, and transmits the power of the driving source to the holding part so that the holding part swings at a same or approximate trajectory as a natural walking motion pattern of the model animal, and the control unit controls the power of the driving source based on a swing state of the holding part connected to the motion transmission mechanism.
