Animal research activity monitor Rotometer

Get the most reliable and accurate test results with the Rotometer Activity System, widely-used and cited in research of Parkinson’s disease (PD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), acquired brain injury, and spinal cord injury. The SDI Rotometer test stations are designed to make the animal turn within its own length, which ensures exploratory behavior will not be counted as a rotation. Additionally, you will have greater flexibility with the option to run up to 16 stations from a single computer and choosing between the full-turn or quarter-turn options. Configure up to 16 test stations for rapid testing of large subject groups Independent start/stop switch Full-turn or quarter-turn options All study data is stored in a database, providing quick and easy export Simple Loading and Unloading of Your Subjects Rotometer gives you the flexibility to load animals and begin testing them before moving on to the next station—eliminating any need to hurry and load all stations before starting the test. All animals will be tested for the same duration of time, regardless of when they were loaded. Quick and Easy Harnessing To harness the animals, just place the elastic around the body behind the front paws. Since the Rotometer harness is a Scünci® brand hair elastic, it is easily replaceable from a local store. Ensure “True” Rotations The long design of the harness mount assures that the animal will remain in the center of the enclosure and turn within its own length—giving you true rotations as opposed to possible exploratory behavior.
