Animal sealing cage with intelligent monitoring function in labs

Abstract

The invention provides a laboratory sealed animal cage box with an intelligent monitoring function, through which the physiological activities of experimental animals can be clearly recorded, and at the same time, the environmental parameters of their lives can be accurately monitored. The invention includes a box with a cavity inside, an animal water bottle, a feed box, a CCD camera, a touch sensor, a vibration sensor, a temperature monitoring device, and a humidity monitoring device. Oxygen pressure monitor is installed on the oxygen delivery port, CCD camera is installed on the top of the box, the touch sensor is installed at the drinking nozzle of the animal water bottle, the vibration sensor is installed on the feed box, and the temperature monitoring device is installed Inside the box, a humidity monitoring device is arranged inside the box. The invention provides a complete set of automatic monitoring means, realizes the unattended experimental process, avoids errors caused by human control, and effectively improves the accuracy and consistency of experimental data.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a laboratory animal cage, in particular to a laboratory sealed animal cage with an intelligent monitoring function. Background technique [0002] In the research fields of pharmacology, neurobiology and preclinical drug research, animal experiments must be carried out first, to track and analyze the movement behavior of experimental animals, such as rats / mice, etc., to observe the experimental animals receiving different The degree of change in animal behavior after treatment methods (such as surgery, use of different drugs, or use of different doses of special drugs) produces relatively objective statistical results based on the analysis of quantitative indicators. At present, the monitoring of small animal behavior is mainly judged by the experimenter observing the behavior of the experimental animal within a certain period of time. This behavior monitoring method relies on the observation of the experimenter and is affected ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

At present, the monitoring of small animal behavior is mainly judged by the experimenter observing the behavior of the experimental animal within a certain period of time. This behavior monitoring method relies on the observation of the experimenter and is affected by the subjective factors of the experimenter. The accuracy of the behavior monitoring results has a certain Certain limitations, and the workload it brings

Most of the existing automated observation and experiment devices are single-method video monitoring and analysis, which is not ideal in terms of the accuracy of experimental animal behavior records

[0003] Altitude also has a great influence on the physiological and biochemical characteristics of small animals. At present, the function of the detection device based on the impact of changes in oxygen pressure on small animals is very single, and multi-functional intelligent monitoring equipment is required to accurately record the experimental animals.
