Rotarod-Test for Mice
Output Details
Description
The Rotarod Test Protocol for Mice assesses their motor coordination and balance. Mice are trained to walk on a rotating rod in a dimly lit environment and then tested for their ability to maintain balance as the rod accelerates from 4 to 40 RPM. The test, repeated thrice with intervals, measures the latency to fall and speed at the fall. This protocol is vital to study neurological disease such as Parkinson disease.
