Wire hanging test

equilibrium sense / muscular strength
ワイヤー・ハンギング実験<平衡感覚・筋力>

Wire hanging testOn this apparatus, weaving a wire-mesh which diameters is the subject can grip easily but it cannot grip more than several minutes, is set in the caracoling ceiling of chamber. The chamber is designed to prevent subject from falling because it tried to escape. Drawer case is equipped on bottom of the apparatus that prevents the subject from escaping after falling from the wire-mesh. When you take out subject from apparatus, pull the drawer case.

Grip strength test

muscular strength
筋力測定<筋力>

Grip strength testThe part for foreleg grasping is made of mesh material to prevent the subject from failing to be able to grasp. There are three types of meters for mice
(50g/100g/200g)and two types for rats(500g/1kg).

Balanced beam test

equilibrium sense / muscular strength
バランスド・ビーム実験<平衡感覚・筋力>

Balanced beam testThere are two types of beams, one of training and the other for testing and both beams have a coating of a non-slip material. Each apparatus is equipped with a framework that prevents the subject from escaping after falling of the beams.
