Learning, Memory & Attention<br />

Circular Pool for Evaluating Learning and Memory<br />

Circular Pool<br />

Atlantis<br />

Circular Pool<br />

Morris Water Maze is for spatial working memory studies. The circular<br />

pool is manufactured in polypropylene and stands on a support with<br />

four wheels for easier displacement.<br />

Panlab/<strong>Harvard</strong> <strong>Apparatus</strong> proposes a complete solution for water<br />

maze settings since the heater, the water circulation pump, the level<br />

controller and the electro valve for pool filling are containing in a<br />

unique control box. The level controller acts directly on the electro<br />

valve, turning it off when the liquid arrives to the corresponding height.<br />

The water temperature is thermostated between 22°C and 32°C<br />

depending on the environmental room temperature. Two easily<br />

interchangeable platforms are supplied (80 and 110 mm) that can be<br />

located anywhere in the pool.<br />

For Aquatic Radial Water Maze, a removable-floating eight radial-arm<br />

maze structure and associated platforms can be provided upon request.<br />

Both Morris and Radial Water Mazes may be associated with our Video-<br />

Tracking Systems for detection and analysis of animal displacements and<br />

behavior throughout the test. Please refer to chart below.<br />
