Automatic Foot misplacement apparatus, Bioseb (CAT#: STEM-LEAR-1147-YJL)

Automatic Foot misplacement apparatus, model BIO-FMA is manufactured by Bioseb
The Foot Misplacement Apparatus (FMA) is a unique system to objectively detect gait or walking disorders, abnormalities of coordination and motor or reflex problems in rodents (rat or mouse) in a highly accurate way, by recording the number, position and duration of errors of an animal walking in an opaque corridor on an horizontal ladder towards a dark compartment.
The ladder rungs can be removed to increase the difficulty of the exercise or create traps, and two sets of 77 infrared sensors are placed above and below the ladder to detect the subject’s movement and any paw misplacements.
The instrument allows you to quantify the recovery of sensorimotor activity, and is of particular interest for studies on myopathy, ataxia, alcoholism, Parkinson’s and Huntington’s disease, recovery from brain or spinal cord injuries, and much more !
