Echo mri 100 body composition analyzer

Manufactured by Echo Medical Systems
Sourced in United States

The Echo MRI-100 Body Composition Analyzer is a medical device designed to measure the body composition of individuals. It utilizes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology to capture detailed images and analyze the distribution of fat, muscle, and other tissues within the body.

Metabolic Phenotyping in Fasted Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Insulin (ITT), glucose (GTT), and pyruvate (PTT) tolerance tests were performed in two (ITT) or 5 h (GTT and PTT) fasted mice by intraperitoneally injecting a bolus of insulin (0.6 mU/g; ITT), d-glucose (2 mg/g; GTT) or sodium pyruvate (1 mg/g; PTT) and tail blood glucose was measured at the time points indicated as described previously7 (link). Meal challenge experiments involved fasting mice overnight (16 h, largely during light cycle) then allowing ad libitum access to food for 4 h before refasting and monitoring blood glucose for the following 6 h. PhenoMaster (TSE systems, Bad Homburg, Germany) open-circuit calorimetry system was used to measure oxygen consumption and ambulatory activity over 48 h (two light–dark cycles) following a 24–48 h acclimation period and body composition by nuclear magnetic resonance (Echo MRI-100 Body Composition Analyzer, Echo Medical Systems, Huston, USA).

Body composition was assessed by nuclear magnetic resonance (Echo MRI-100 Body Composition Analyzer; Echo Medical Systems, Houston, TX) prior to treadmill familiarization at ZT13. For the exercise training cohort, measurements were taken in the week prior to starting exercise training, after 3 weeks and after 6 weeks of exercise training. Lean and fat mass (grams) are presented as percentage changes over time as well as a percentage of total body weight over time.

At the beginning, middle (after 8 weeks) and end (after 16 weeks) of the experiment, fat and lean body mass (g) were measured in non-anesthetized living animals placed in an EchoMRI-100 body composition analyzer (Echo Medical Systems LLC, Houston, TX, USA).

Metabolic Assessment in Fasted Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Blood glucose and insulin concentrations were measured in 5-hour fasted mice using a glucometer (Accu-Chek Performa; Roche Diagnostics) and an Alpha LISA kit (PerkinElmer, Inc), respectively. Insulin resistance was measured using the homeostasis model for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) calculated from the fasting blood glucose (millimoles per liter) ϫ fasting serum insulin (picomoles per liter)/135. Glucose tolerance was evaluated in 15-hour-fasted mice using a 2 g/kg oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) given by gavage. Insulin sensitivity was evaluated in 5-hour-fasted mice by an insulin tolerance test (ITT) giving 1 U/kg of insulin (Lilly & Co), ip. Blood glucose measurements during the OGTT and ITT were done over a 2-hour period as previously reported (19) . Serum total cholesterol and triglycerides were determined in 5-hour-fasted mice using a CardioChek cholesterol test system (Roxon Medi-Tech). Lean body mass and fat mass were determined using computed tomography using an EchoMRI-100 body composition analyzer (Echo Medical Systems).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
