minispec LF Series TD-NMR BCA Analyzer



Body Composition Analysis with Precision, Comfort, and Efficiency

Rotunda SciTech is proud to offer the Bruker minispec LF Series—a trusted line of TD-NMR (Time-Domain Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) instruments optimized for non-invasive body composition analysis in preclinical and laboratory settings.

Key Applications

  Body composition measurement in:  Non-destructive analysis of:
  • Rats (up to 1kg)
  • Mice
  • Organ and tissue samples
  • Biopsies
  • Animal feed
  • Feces


Product Options

🔹 minispec LF50
For mice up to 60g
🔹 minispec LF90II
For rats up to 700g; dual-probe system for mice, organs, and biopsies
🔹 minispec LF110
Handles heavier rats (up to 1kg); same dual-probe versatility as LF90II

Built-In Advantages

  • Non-Invasive & Anesthetic-Free
    Measurements are performed on awake animals, reducing stress and eliminating recovery time.
  • High Sensitivity & Precision
    Unique probe-in-probe design optimizes both quality and filling factors for superior results—even in tiny samples like newborn mice or small biopsies.
  • Fast & Repeatable
    Get full-body composition results in under 2 minutes—perfect for daily monitoring.
  • Reduces Animal Stress
    Bruker’s patented red restrainers align with rodents’ dichromatic vision, encouraging voluntary entry and reducing handling stress.
  • Temperature-Stabilized Magnet
