Grip Strength Test Rodent grip is a widely used apparatus to evaluate motor function. The MazeEngineers Grip strength apparatus uses both small and large grip plates to match your strain. Our apparatus measures tensile force and easily outputs mean values.View...
Now it’s time to test the animal’s ability to find a hidden platform. Start by raising the water level to about an inch above the top of the platform and adding powdered milk or non-toxic paint to the water. In these trials, record the time the rodent spends in each quadrant and ...
there are two options when running the T-maze test. The animal can be placed in the enclosed arm and since the rodent does not see the open arms until it emerges from the enclosed arm, it can be trained in an inhibitory avoidance response if placed in the enclosed arm multiple times. ...
gondii on rodent behaviour is that it causes rodents that are normally fearful of cats to become attracted to cat odour. Cat odour avoidance has been measured in different arenas (circular, rectangular and square of different sizes) by presenting various odours in different areas of the arena ...

The Plus-Maze Discriminative Avoidance Task: An Ethical Rodent Model for Concomitant Evaluation of Learning, Memory, Anxiety, Motor Activity and Their InteractionsThe elevated plus-maze consists of two open, elevated arms running along a north-south axis and two arms enclosed by walls running east-...
Thus, on the pathological end, our maze for social cooperation evaluation can contribute significantly to the investigation of a wide range of social cooperation impairments in a rodent model. Social cooperation is defined as a joint action for mutual benefit1 that depends not only on the ...
Stand still to stop time, giving the resilient rodent ample opportunity to sketch the safest route ahead. Hoard precious upgrades hidden around each winding twist and turn to stay alive. Scramble toward safety and collect upgrade dots to gain experience and unlock ...
In study 1, we were first interested if human behavior is comparable to rodent behavior on the EPM. Healthy participants (n = 100) were thus behaviorally tested. In line with studies in rodents [6], participants spent significantly more time on safe fractions of the maze (closed arms ...
Overall, maze learning has been widely used to probe for the role of the hippocampus in rodent learning and memory, using a wide variety of types of lesions to the CNS. Also, maze learning has lent itself well to studies where hippocampal cellular responses are recorded in vivo in real-time...
