DARK LIGHT box, Panlab (CAT#: STEM-LEAR-1310-YJL)

DARK LIGHT box, model STEM-LEAR-1310-YJL is manufactured by Panlab
The Panlab dark-light box allows easy and quick evaluation of the animal anxious behavior and its modification by pharmacological agents by assessing the animal displacements in two compartments with different size, color and illumination.
Both bulbs are 370 mm from the floor of the box.
In that case, the automated experimental chambers (up to 8) are associated to the PC-based control software PPCWIN for data storage and analysis.
Even though it may represent a more complex experiment to set due to the strong lighting contrast existing between the compartments, some researchers also use the box with a video tracking system.

Chamber Dimensions - Mouse: White compartment: 250 (D) x 250 (W) x 240 (H) mm; Black compartment: 160 (D) x 250 (W) x 240 (H) mm; Door: 70 x 70 mm
Chamber Dimensions - Rat: White compartment: 310 (D) x 310 (W) x 240 (H) mm; Black compartment: 200 (D) x 310 (W) x 240 (H) mm; Door: 100 x 100 mm

Compartments with independent and highly contrasted illumination
Associated with weight transducer technology for optimal animal detection
Easy to clean between two trials
Easy connection to a PC through RS232 port
