SubCue™ Dataloggers are small, reusable temperature recording devices encapsulated in biocompatible silicone. SubCue offers a significantly improved product lifetime with precise and accurate internal temperature measurements, as compared to radiotelemetry devices. Abdominal implantation is the suggested use for SubCue products.

We are currently offering SubCue Datalogger and SubCue-Mini Datalogger packages.
  • SubCue-Mini Dataloggers are available for use in 24 gram sized or larger animals, including juvenile rats (14 days old) and mice.
  • SubCue Dataloggers are appropriate for use in animals greater than 42 grams, including rats, guinea pigs, minipigs, and rabbits.

SubCue software is user-friendly and allows for easy programming of the SubCue Dataloggers.

SubCue Dataloggers are the ideal choice for temperature tracking!
