Bioelectrical impedance analysis for the estimation of body composition in rats
Laboratory Animals, Vol.32(1), pp.65-71
1998
Abstract
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)was used to assess body composition in rats fed on either standard laboratory diet or on a high-fat diet designed to induce obesity. Bioelectrical impedance analysis predictions of total body water and thus fat-free mass (FFMIfor the'group mean values were generally within 5% of the measured values by tritiated water (3H201 dilution. The limits of agreement for the procedure were, however, large, approximately ±25'7'0, limiting the applicability of the technique for measurement of body composition in individual animals.
