EEG measurements in groups of animals EEG measurements in groups of animals
NeuroLogger is a truly unique and elegant solution for wireless recording of EEG activity in animals as small as mice or bigger. This cutting-edge and field-proven technology was developed at the University of Zurich on flying homing pigeons and adapted and industrialized to the needs of mouse endophenotyping by NewBehavior

NeuroLogger from NewBehavior

General features

  • a complete EEG recording device with 4 channels

  • pre-amplifiers and raw data storage plugs directly into an electrode connector on the head of the animal

  • plug in – record – plug-out – download and analyze

  • recording from home cage or in test boxes of any complexity

  • recording from multiple animals in social settings

  • wireless synchronization with trigger signals for precise analysis

  • built-in movement sensor measuring whether animal rests or walks

  • timing signals for matching with external events can be added

  • sleep (REM, non REM), wake


Applications

  • screening for sleep disorders and epilepsy in large samples of mice
  • analysis of evoked and event-related field potentials
  • selective attention and hippocampal activity
  • monitoring drug effects
  • ...and much more, depending on your creativity!

Comparison to traditional EEG measurement devices

NeuroLogger vs. telemetry
NeuroLogger vs. cabled systems
  • animals can move both indoors or outdoors
  • no limitations by distance
  • no more implantation and exchange of bulky batteries
  • no more bulky and expensive receiver plates under cages
  • no more electronic frequency problems: keep dozens of loggers in one room       
  • recording from multiple animals in social settings
  • wireless synchronization with trigger signals for precise analysis
  • integrated movement sensor informs whether animal rests or walks
  • add timing signals for matching with external events
  • no more twisting wires – animals can move freely
  • no more restricted test arenas
  • much reduced artifacts
  • recording from home cage or in test boxes of any complexity
  • precise tracking of animal movements by video camera is possible
