About this item
Ugo Basile Rota-Rod has a great value in research involving screening of drugs which are potentially active on motory coordination.
- Excellent in assessing the effects of drugs, brain damage, and diseases on motor coordination and fatigue
- Does not make noise
- The angular speed can be preset from 2 – 80 rpm in steps of 1 rpm
- In the acceleration mode, the speed changes can be preset in 6 second (10 minute intervals in 6 second steps)
- The tiltable digital panel shows accrued rotations and time on the rod
When the animal falls off its cylinder section onto the plate below, the plate trips, thereby recording the animal’s endurance time in seconds. The reverse rotation can be selected, which takes place at minimum speed, at the end of a programmable acceleration-deceleration sequence. A rocking motion is also presettable, with adjustable angular amplitude, speed, and acceleration. The Rota-Rod includes software for connection to PC, and parameters can be controlled via your PC.
