Biopac Student Lab Accessory
The SS17L connects to a single input channel of the BSL System MP3X unit or MP45. The SS17L can be used with the SS19L Noninvasive Blood Pressure Cuff or as a stand-alone device. When used with the Blood Pressure Cuff, it can record Korotkoff sounds for easy determination of systolic and diastolic blood pressure. When used on its own, it can record a variety of acoustical signals, including heart sounds and sounds associated with rubbing or grinding (e.g., Bruxism). The acoustical transducer element is a Piezo-electric ceramic disk which is bonded to the interior of a metallic circular housing.
fNIR Imaging Systems are stand-alone functional brain imaging solutions for continuous NIR spectroscopy (NIRS). They provide an in-lab cognitive function assessment and eliminate a great many of the drawbacks of a functional MRI. fNIR optical imaging technology measures neural activity and hemodynamic response in the prefrontal cortex. Subjects wear an fNIR sensor (IR light sources […]
View AllBIOPAC provides software and hardware that allow for research teams to record and analyze respiration activity in physiological experimentation. Here are a few notable studies covering HRV, EMG, and EEG measurement. HRV (Jing Wei, Hong Luo, Si J. Wu, Paul P. Zheng, Genyue Fu, and Kang Lee) Humans encounter various stressful situations everyday at work, home, and school. Such stress when experienced at high degrees and/or […]
