HUMAN RESPIROMETRY PACKAGE (WITH FLOW METER)
The Concept
Qubit's Human Respirometry Package allows students to conduct numerous safe, exciting investigations in respiratory and cardiovascular physiology. The equipment and instruments are simple to set up and operate and the experiments are interesting and informative. The Human Respirometry Package is inexpensive enough to be purchased in quantity for use at undergraduate laboratory stations, yet the package's Infrared CO2 Analyzer, Oxygen Sensor, Pneumotach Spirometer and Wireless Exercise Heart-Rate Monitor have the accuracy and resolution required for advanced student research projects.
The HR1LP Human Respirometry Package Includes:
G100 AC Gas Pump
F1000 Flow Meter
A504 2-way Non-rebreathing valve
Breath Mixing Volume Bags
S102 Flow Through O2 Sensor
S153 Infrared CO2 Analyzer (0-10%) (Includes CO2 and H2O scrubbers)
S182 Wireless Exercise Heart Rate Monitor
S184 Pneumotach Spirometer
Ported Rubber Facemask with headgear
C410 LabPro Interface
C901 Logger Pro Software
C404 Customized Setup Software
Instructor's and Student's Manuals
Wireless Exercise Heart Rate Monitor
Use Qubit's HR1LP Human Respirometry Package to Measure:
VO2 and VCO2 during rest and exercise
Heart rate
Tidal Volume
Minute Volume
Breathing Frequency
CO2 and O2 are monitored continuously in mixed expired air, so that changes in VO2 and VCO2 can be monitored with time and under changing conditions. Use the package to investigate:
Effects of isotonic exercise on VE, VO2, VCO2 and respiratory exchange ratio
Effects of hyperventilation and breath holding on respiration and heart rate
Effects of rebreathing and increased dead space on respiration and heart rate
Effects of diet, caffeine, etc. on metabolism

Modularity:
Purchase the G114 Animal Chamber and use the HR1LP to investigate respirometry in mice and other small animals.
Optional Additions:
Consider adding a Flow Controller and Monitor to your system, to give live readouts of flow on your computer screen and to record these values to the data files. Check out the HR1LP-FCM package for more information regarding the Flow Controller and Monitor.
