Simple, reliable and inexpensive telemetry system for continuous monitoring of small animal core temperature.
A core temperature telemetry system is described which includes a transmitter and circuitry for signal reception, noise elimination and computer interfacing. The system is inexpensive (less than $50), easily constructed, reliable, portable, and has proven to be sensitive to rapid fluctuations in core temperature.
