PINCHER TEST, Panlab (CAT#: STEM-LEAR-1263-YJL)

PINCHER TEST, model STEM-LEAR-1263-YJL is manufactured by Panlab
Bioseb's "Rodent Pincher" algometer allows calibrated forceps to induce quantifiable mechanical stimulation in the animal (rats or mice) on a linear scale. The most suitable protocol was experimented by determining the effects of 3 repetitive measurements on the 2 hindpaws, respectively over long-term (9 days), mid-term (1 day) and short-term (2 hours). It was primarily developed as an analgesimeter/algometer (analgesia measurement instrument) for nociceptive tests. In this specific use, the Rodents Pincher not only represents an alternative to the "RANDALL & SELITTO" test - but also presents the following advantages when compared to the classical test:
More ethical handling, less stressful for the animal (rat or mouse) resulting in less variable measurements
Faster measurement, less traumatic for the tissues
Digital measurement with metrological traceability
Moreover, it allowed to perform rat analagesia testing with minimal constraint, which reduces data variability.
