Ugo Basile

Elevated Plus Maze (EPM) for rats or mice, optimized for Videotracking

Code 40142/3UB
The Ugo Basile Grip-Strength Meter automatically measures grip-strength (i.e. peak force and time resistance) of forelimbs and - via the optional grid - hindlimbs in rats and mice. The effects of drugs, toxins, muscle relaxants, disease, ageing or neural damage on muscle strength may be assessed.

Features

  • Force-Rate monitoring tools (software and LCD display)
  • Automatic Peak Detector
  • 5 grasping tools included: bar, trapeze, plastic grid (metal grid is optional)
  • Auto-Zeroing routine at every measurement

Benefits

  • Pulling force applied at consistent rate
  • Peak pull-force automatically stored
  • Same instrument measures rat and mouse
  • No calibration required for normal use

 

Application

When pulled by the tail, rodents instinctively grab anything they can, to try to stop this involuntary backward movement, until the pulling force overcomes their grip strength. when positioned in front of the GSM bar, or trapeze, or grid, the animal grasps at it.

After the animal loses its grip on the grasping bar, the peak amplifier automatically records and stores the peak pull-force achieved by the limbs and shows it on the display.
