Von Frey analgesiometer

for researchfor rats

IITC Life Science created the original Electronic von Frey Aesthesiometer which is used to assess mechanical allodynia with rigid tips (threshold) and the “SupertipsTM” (flexible von Frey hairs) are used for sensory test on all test subjects from all animal test subjects and human studies. The current Electronic von Frey Aesthesiometer series enables researchers to use up to 5 total test disciplines with a single unit. Multiple users have the ability to use one single unit for multiple studies. MRI Probe available Main control unit allows for up to three different devices (e.g., von Frey, Randall Selitto and/or Plethysmometer) LCD Readout (Floating or last maximum & minimum) Rigid tips up to 800 Gr. “Supertips™” 15 up to 65 Gr. “Supertips™” von Frey Hairs can be ordered indvidually 90, 800 or 1000 Gr. probes available Microprocessor Electronics 0.1 Gr Plug-in probes Independence from Hygroscopy Independence from temperature Optional analog output cable Pipette tips can be customized to any specification Our system is an easy, user friendly system which was developed to enable researchers to test sensory and pain threshold in one system. When studies call for pain threshold measurement rigid tips are used and when measuring sensory threshold one of the 15 Supertips™ is used. The system is supplied with either 90, 800 or 1000 gram pressure probes. Pressure probe type is determined by test subject.
