Rodent Activity Wheel<br />
The Rodent Activity Wheel represents a very simple and clever way<br />
to register animal voluntary physical activity in its home cage<br />
environment.<br />
The use of this high throughput tool is particularly relevant for<br />
research involving circadian rhythms, phenotyping and drug testing.<br />
The animals are housed individually in the home cages equipped with<br />
the running wheel.<br />
The total number of wheel rotation made by the animal is displayed<br />
on the external LE907 individual counter or LE3806 multi-counter<br />
devices. LE3806 multi-counter allows storing the data in user-defined<br />
time intervals and exports them to the SeDaCom PC interface<br />
(through RS-232 serial port) in a format compatible with Excel .<br />
All the components of the wheel assembly (wheel, wheel hub and<br />
support) are made of stainless steel and are used with standard ACE<br />
(Allentown Caging Equipment) polycarbonate rodent cages provided<br />
with its wire lid. The wheel is mounted outside the home cage to<br />
preserve animal living space.<br />
All non-electrical cage components are autoclavable.<br />
