Activity Running Wheels
Running wheels, or Activity Wheels, are designed to
provide an easy convenient method for measuring laboratory mice or rats¡¯ motor
activity over long periods of time,
data acquisition system is included.
Especially useful for research on circadian rhythms, motor function, aging,
energy balance, recovering
and pain related exercise.The running-wheel is made
of stainless steel, provided with low friction Teflon bushing, for quite smooth
action.
The wheel is housed in a standard clear polycarbonate cage and a stainless
steel wire lid with exclusive locks fasten securely to the cage body.
Our
running wheel can record both the forward and reverse running data, including
the number of turns, distance, running time,
and the corresponding average
speed in two directions respectively. The data can be collected by connecting
to the software and mini-printer
to record the activity of the rodents real
time. Up to 24 wheels can be connected to the same counter or PC at the same
time.
