Mouse Monitoring Core (MMC)
The Duke-NUS Mouse Monitoring Core (MMC) was set up in 2020 to provide platform, service and expertise to support researchers investigating the physiologic phenotypes of experimental mice. The MMC features the PhenoMaster (Next Generation model) from TSE Systems - a multi-modular platform that allows fully automated and perfectly synchronised metabolic, behavioural and physiological monitoring. Our PhenoMaster system performs home cage phenotyping of up to 10 mice simultaneously in a controlled environment, recording physiologic parameters (such as indirect gas calorimetry, food and liquid intake, locomotor activity) at 1-min intervals in complete synchrony.
