AUTO TAIL SUSPENSION SYSTEM, Panlab (CAT#: STEM-LEAR-1306-YJL)

AUTO TAIL SUSPENSION SYSTEM, model STEM-LEAR-1306-YJL is manufactured by Panlab
The automated TST system for the tail suspension test allows a fast and reliable screening of the psychotropic properties (anti-depressants, sedatives) of drugs.
During the test, the movements of the mice are analysed in terms of force, energy and power developed over time.
The automated tail suspension system includes the suspension cages (3 mice per cage) and a user-friendly software to run, record, analyse and replay the experiments.
The results are either printed or stored in. txt or. xls files formats.
