Small Animal Holder (Weighs 250 gm, for sub's to 1 kg)
Product #: E05-20
|
Any type of cage, restrainer or animal holder may be placed on the platform in accordance with the measurement objectives. Large area cages, such as plastic home (living) cages, may be used if ambulatory behavior is to be included in the measure. Restrainers like our startle response animal holder may be used to limit response topography when desired.
Since the load cell is AC coupled into the Transducer Monitor after balancing, the actual force change associated with each movement is independent of the total mass on the platform provided the dynamic range of the sensor is not exceeded. Make sure the weight of the animal, plus the weight of the cage or restrainer, plus the expected response force, which can be several times the weight of the animal, does not exceed the weight specifications for the platform selected.
