FST ANALYSIS
High throughput
Up to 8 animals can be tested simultaneously what allows high throughput testing. All acquired data are calculated and presented in real time already during the experiment. The possibility to save different setup configurations and to generate pdf based summary reports automatically makes it even easier to deal with your test sessions.
Mice & Rats
Mice and rats show different behaviors during the forced swim test. Our system can be used with both species and considers the differences.
Three behaviors
Comparing the active versus the inactive time provides only a small amount of results that are possible to get from the forced swim test. Our system is capable to distinguish between the three behaviors struggling, swimming and floating and considers also the temporal course of the shown behaviors.
Extensive statistical functionality
The software offers a big number of statistical test to analyze the acquired data. You don’t need to go through the data with other programs. Just select the algebraic function or test you want to be calculated and see the results instantly. One behavioral test – one software.
Real time individual and group performance calculation
During the experiment the acquired data are calculated and displayed graphically in real time. Thus you are able to really see what is going on.
Useful diagrams
Already during the experiment the acquired data are analyzed and presented in convincing diagrams. All diagrams can be exported in different file formats (bmp, wmf and emf).
Further processing of data and diagrams
The collected data can be exported for other applications. Further individual data manipulations can be conducted. All diagrams that have been generated during the experiment or the data analysis are saved in the vector graphic format (wmf) thereby making them easy to integrate and work with in other programs.
Digital video encoding included
You do not want to fill another locker with your experiment tapes? With the FST software you can directly encode your experiment to a digital video file in real time. Easy to do, easy to store and easy to handle.
These different source signals can be used with the FST software:
USB camera, analog camera, VCR, digital video file.
