The rechargeable data loggers are as small as 2g, allowing mice to behave normally
during chronic recording sessions in any size cage or chamber.

Ex tended Batter y Life for Less Disruptions

With up to 26-hour battery life for mice and 70 hours of battery life for rats,
the ELG-2 Datalogger lets you handle the mouse less. Often battery changes
can be done just once a day (or less with larger batteries designed for rats).
Users have found it convenient to change the battery while changing the
mouse cage bedding to minimize interruptions during the study. Compare that
to tethered animals, where some institutions discourage long-term use.
Less frequent battery changes means your EEG data is less likely to be affected
by disruptions, and you can get on with your research!

Research Animals in Epilepsy Models

Discovering new treatments for seizures/epilepsy depends on EEG research in
animal studies. The ELG-2 Datalogger is highly sensitive to EEG signals, easily
distinguishing seizures with high precision. This small, but robust EEG
recording device is well-tolerated by mice and rats, making it a reliable method
of functional brain mapping in rodents.

Data Analysis of EEG & EMG Recordings

Amuza’s ELG-2 Datalogger system comes with data analysis software that is
intuitive and highly compatible. Simply insert the microSD card and the
software enables a quick overview of the recorded data from your mouse
telemetry or rat telemetry study. The software is also capable of �ltering and
simple (FFT-based) alpha, theta, delta power calculation, as well as creating
hypnogram plots for sleep analysis.

Data Format of ELG-2 System – The data format of the ELG-2 Datalogger
system for EEG & EMG recordings is simple binary and is compatible with
Matlab, Octave, and other software compatible with binary reading. Matlab
sample codes are included in the package. Data from Amuza’s EEG data
analysis software can be exported to EDF or TXT without any dedicated reader
or additional software.
This highly compatible telemetry setup with easy-to-use data analysis software
makes it easy to incorporate the ELG-2 Datalogger system with your existing
equipment setup.
Why is our EEG data analysis software free?

We consult with neuroscientists every day. We share success stories, product
use tips, and demo data, collaborating on experiments that bring knowledge to
the �eld of neuroscience. Amuza’s mission to ‘Unlock the Potential for
Discovery’ is achieved through transparent partnership and understanding. In
these collaborative settings, we understand the importance of sharing data
amongst your research team, in your home of�ce, or with your network of
fellow researchers in the pursuit of scienti�c discovery. By using free software
with unlimited access and zero licensing fees, we seek to support open
knowledge in the �eld of neuroscience.

Every neuroscience researcher has seen the challenges presented
when working with tethered research animals. From stress to
boredom, escape attempts and wire gnawing, these behaviors
resulting from wired experiments can all lead to artifacts and
failed experiments.
Wireless neuroscience research solutions, such as the ELG-2

Datalogger for EEG and EMG recording and data analysis, help to
eliminate the costly delays of breaking a tether.

Unfortunately, performing
safe and prolonged EEG in
rodents is complicated by
a slew of challenges, the
most notorious of which
is disconnections of the
EEG cable from the
rodent’s head . . . due to
the high mobility of the
tethered rodents.

A Good EEG Choice for Social Interactions
With the wireless ELG-2 Datalogger, the well-shielded headstage creates a low
noise setting. This allows the device to work effectively in high-density
housing environments – noise does not affect neighboring cages. The
lightweight wireless device functions well in social housing as the mice can
freely interact. High throughput, high success rates are obtained from
recordings from the ELG-2 Datalogger electrodes.
