Echomri 100 machine

Manufactured by Echo Medical Systems

Sourced in United States

The EchoMRI-100 is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine designed for laboratory use. It is capable of producing high-quality images of small samples or specimens. The core function of the EchoMRI-100 is to non-invasively capture detailed anatomical and structural information about the target material.

Body Composition and Glucose Tolerance

Body weight was measured weekly. Body composition was measured using a body composition analyzer (EchoMRI-100 machine, Echo Medical Systems, Houston, TX, USA) on unanesthetized mice. Glucose tolerance tests were conducted on the mice after 16 h of fasting with water ad libitum by intraperitoneal injections of glucose (1 mg/g of body weight). Blood glucose was measured at 0, 15, 30, 60, and 120 min post-injection using a glucometer (Contour NEXT, Bayer HealthCare).

Longitudinal Analysis of Body Composition

Body weight and food consumption were measured before and after fasting periods from 6 to 23 weeks of age. Caloric intake was calculated based on nutritional information (normal chow: 3.3 Kcal/g, 17% fat) provided by the manufacturers. Body composition was analyzed using the body composition analyzer (EchoMRI-100 machine, Echo Medical Systems, Houston, TX, USA), which quantifies fat and lean mass in live, non-anesthetized mice.

Body Composition and Metabolic Rates

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

Body composition was analyzed using the EchoMRI-100 machine (Echo Medical Systems, Houston, TX, USA), which determines fat and lean mass in conscious mice. Body metabolic rates were tested by indirect calorimetry in a comprehensive laboratory animal monitoring system (Columbus Instruments) for 2 days according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Light and feeding conditions were kept the same as in the regular cages.

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.
