| General note |
Mice actively interact with their surrounding environment influencing physical, social,<br/>emotional well-being and sizably govern behaviors including stress responses, social<br/>interactions and exploration, setting a crucial foundation for general quality of life.<br/>Suboptimal environment conditions lead the laboratory mice to have impaired social<br/>behavior, elevated anxiety level and physiological stress. Environmental parameters such<br/>as temperature, light, noise and air quality have great impact on mice growth, reproduction<br/>and behavioral development. Recognizing these interactions necessitates the behest of an<br/>environment monitoring system. So, this study set forth design, development and setup of<br/>real time environment monitoring system for mice. Integration of multiple sensors provides<br/>controlled and stable conditions for experimental setup, bestowing continuous,<br/>uninterrupted monitoring of crucial environmental parameters, incorporating the factors<br/>vital for sustaining healthy, stable and stress-free environment. The system provides us<br/>with real time visualization of data, automated alarm system and immediate action toward<br/>environmental fluctuation. The data kept being stored continuously providing reliable,<br/>long-term access to analysis & monitoring. Besides, Real time feedback, regulating the<br/>surrounding environment resulting in better Behavioral activities and good food/water<br/>intake pattern. To test this hypothesis evaluation of anxiety like behavior was conducted<br/>via five behavioral tests. Results give an idea of better activity and reduce stress like<br/>behavior in experiment group mice housed in real time environment monitoring cage as<br/>compared to control group mice housed in a normal cage. Notably, in the post-28-day<br/>behavioral tests, all results showed a p-value smaller than 0.05, confirming the statistical<br/>significance of these findings. So, the findings highlight the system competence bestowing<br/>mice wellbeing and behavioral development. Therefore, demonstrating technologies can<br/>be applied to achieve ethical and scientific diligence along with adaptability and scalability<br/>in future. |
