ImpediMed Imp� DF50: single frequency bioimpedance comes of age

>> Download Imp� DF50 brochure

The new standard in single frequency body composition analysis is the Imp� DF50. Until now single frequency bioimpedance has been limited by the "one algorithm fits all" approach. Single frequency bioimpedance has now come of age with the Imp� DF50's three population-specific, peer reviewed algorithms providing greater accuracy over broader population groups.

  • Accurate, single frequency (50 kHz) BIA device
  • Only instrument to offer peer reviewed General, Obese and Child algorithms
  • Displays resistance, reactance, impedance and phase
  • Calculates fat-free mass, fat mass, total body water, intracellular water, extracellular water and their percentages
  • Includes test cell to check calibration
  • Hand-held, battery operated and fully portable
  • Software included generates comprehensive, easy-to-follow reports

ImpediMed Imp� SFB7: supreme accuracy and precision using BIS

>> Download Imp� SFB7 brochure

The Imp� SFB7 is a single channel, tetra polar bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) device that scans 256 frequencies between 4 kHz and 1000 kHz. The device utilises Cole modelling with Hanai mixture theory to determine total body water (TBW), extracellular fluid (ECF) and intracellular fluid (ICF) from impedance data. Fat-free mass (FFM) and fat mass (FM) are then calculated on the device. Further data analysis can be undertaken in the supporting software (supplied). Therefore, no population specific prediction equations (algorithms) are required for data analysis.

  • Bioimpedance spectroscopy - 256 discrete frequencies
  • Single channel - tetra polar configuration
  • Portable - full on-board computing
  • Touch screen
  • Low noise data generation - no high frequency hook effect
  • Highly accurate body composition analysis
  • Readings in less than one second
  • Advanced options - user-definable hydration coefficient
  • Full access and disclosure of all raw data
  • Supplied with case, electrodes and clips, leads and software on CD-ROM

Body composition analysis using BIS: instrument choice is critical

Bioimpedance analysis (BIA) has become a widely accepted method for the determination of body composition due to its simplicity, speed and noninvasive nature. While BIA is recognised as one of the more reliable methods, not all devices or methods are able to achieve the level of accuracy required. The accuracy of a BIA device depends primarily on the number of frequencies at which measurements are taken. This is why the choice of instrument is so important. ImpediMed offers the ultimate in bioimpedance analysis: bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS). BIS takes measurements at 256 different frequencies. Cole analysis and the Hanai mixture theory are used to determine body composition.
