DESCRIPTION
The New Promethion Core XT is the only behavioral monitoring system that scales to meet your study size and needs
For the first time, you are enabled to design and schedule your experiments without limiting constraints on study design or size. Promethion Core XT uses proven Sable Systems technology to deliver an accurate, automated behavioral phenotyping system. It saves thousands of hours in manual measurements, meeting the demands of academic, pharmaceutical, and contract research organizations.
Scale Your Study Size
Expand from 24 up to 96 cages on a single integrated platform. Laboratories can scale seamlessly as research demands grow—without changing systems or workflows.
Scalable Measurement Capabilities
Configure the system with the measurement modalities your research requires today, while maintaining the flexibility to expand tomorrow.
Standard capabilities include:
Optional capabilities that can be added at any time.
Scientific Rigor without Compromises
Traditional behavioral phenotyping systems often force difficult tradeoffs such as reduced cohort size and/or the number of variables studied for time, including performing multiple serial runs over weeks. With support for up to 96 rodents on a single Promethion Core XT system, researchers can:
- Test more variables simultaneously
- Maintain statistically robust cohort sizes
- Increase throughput dramatically
- Minimize interexperiment variability
- Get cleaner datasets, improved reproducibility, and faster scientific insight
| Promethion Core XT Automation Improves Data Quality | Manual Data Collection Creates Hidden Costs |
|---|---|
| Promethion Core XT with Promethion Live software continuously and automatically records behavioral measurements with high temporal resolution and standardized collection methods. | In many facilities, large-scale behavioral studies still rely heavily on personnel to manually collect measurements, with the most common being food intake and body mass. In addition to the cost in time and money, manual measurements also introduce significant scientific and operational limitations. |
| No need for manual measurement | Multiple researchers collecting data across shifts |
| No animal handling | Repeated animal handling |
| Less disruption to feeding behavior, activity patterns, stress responses and circadian rhythms | Altered feeding behavior, activity patterns, stress responses and circadian rhythms |
| Automated transcription reduces errors | Increased opportunities for transcription and recording errors |
| Alarms notify when eating or weight is out-of-range | Spot checking of animal welfare including food and/or water intake |
| Reduced staffing needed for around-the-clock surveillance | Around-the-clock scheduling |
Instead of relying on intermittent manual measurements, researchers can capture complete behavioral profiles over days, weeks, or months with minimal disruption to the animals.
