Starr Life Sciences
STARR Life Sciences Corp. manufactures the MouseOx Plus® pulse oximeter, the world’s first and only patented noninvasive vital signs monitor specifically designed for mice, rats, and other small laboratory animals. (Patent No. 8,005,624). The MouseOx® and The MouseOx Plus® are being used worldwide by thousands of researchers and veterinarians from universities, pharmaceutical companies, and contract research organizations.
In 2013, STARR Life Sciences® acquired the VitalView®/E-Mitter® product line from Philips Respironics, Inc®. These are the same products that have been sold by Mini-Mitter® and Philips Respironics® for more than 35 years.


Our Multiplexer extends the function of the MouseOx Plus by allowing monitoring and recording of data from 8 to 16 subjects connected to a single MouseOx.

In-Cage Mouse Running Wheels, due to their low profile, fit directly in a mouse cage body and can be used in conjunction with filter top lids and standard cage racks while monitoring.

Continuously monitor small animal activity with Tecniplast Activity Cage System and VitalView Software.

VitalView® Activity Data Acquisition Software allows you to monitor and record data in real-time when using Starr Life Science’s In-Cage Running Wheels, Tecniplast Activity System and Home Cage Motion Detector.

The Home Cage Motion detector is an affordable solution that uses infrared light to detect gross motor activity of animals within the cage without disturbing the subjects.

The ER4000 Energizer/Receiver provides power to and receives measurement data back from implanted E-Mitters. It conveniently fits under most standard lab animal cages and can work together with our Mouse and Rat running wheels.
