Applications

Activity Cages are useful to record spontaneous coordinate activity in rats and mice (individual or groups) and variations of this activity in time, e.g., in the following types of investigations:

• General toxicology, in ascertaining the action of a drug on the animal’s activi-ty, especially if it is subjected to chronic treatment
• Psycopharmacology, in screening drugs which are potentially active on the central nervous system
• Behavioral Sciences, in evaluating the variations of spontaneous activity after changes in environmental conditions.

 The Basile 47420 Multiple Activity Cage is a reliable research instrument for recording spontaneous coordinate activity in rats and mice.
