Body temperature measurement in mice during acute illness: implantable temperature transponder versus surface infrared thermometry

Abstract Body temperature is a valuable parameter in determining the wellbeing of laboratory animals. However, using body temperature to refine humane endpoints during acute illness generally lacks comprehensiveness and exposes to inter-observer bias. Here we compared two methods to assess body temp...
