Respiration and Production Measurements

uSense Rate is designed for use with the Unisense MicroRespiration System. It provides precise control, real-time data collection, and integrated analysis of metabolic rates in aquatic organisms, microbial communities, or phytoplankton.

Basic features of the program are:

• Control of settings for experimental start-ups
• It keeps track of measurements obtained in different chambers/samples
• Multiple sensors can be used simultaneously
• Calculations based on linear interpolation and regression results in respiration rate data from several chambers using only one sensor
• Oxygen or other analytes consumption and/or production are followed in real time
• Data is continuously saved for later data interpretation
• After the experiment, all measurements can be exported into an Excel or a CSV file for easy data handling and analysis
