ROTA ROD, model LE8505 is manufactured by Panlab Our Rota Rod provides an easy way to test the effects of drugs, brain damage, or diseases on motor coordination or fatigue resistance in rodents. A removable upper separator for rat models is included to prevent interference between animals running in adjacent lanes. Alternatively, acceleration rate may be selected at a defined time (2 to 5999 sec, 1 sec increments). The data can be read on the screen and/or exported to the SEDACOM software for saving the data in table form by lanes/trials. The new integral cover option helps confine the animals if they fall off of the rod (only available for mice).
