FAQ's of BSE-0166 Rota Rod:
Q: How does the BSE-0166 Rota Rod assist in motor coordination testing?
A: The Rota Rod enables researchers to assess the balance, coordination, and endurance of laboratory animals by measuring how long they can remain on the rotating rod. This provides valuable data on motor skills and the effects of treatments or conditions.
Q: What is the process for operating the Rota Rod apparatus?
A: Begin by placing up to four animals in the separate Perspex-lined compartments. Set the desired speed (5-40 rpm) and timer on the digital LCD panel. The apparatus records the time each animal stays on the rod, with an automatic cut-off when the animal falls off.
Q: When should the Rota Rod with Display be used in research?
A: This apparatus is ideal in studies requiring assessment of motor coordination, such as neuromuscular evaluations, drug screening, or gene function analysis, typically during preclinical laboratory animal research.
Q: Where can the BSE-0166 Rota Rod be installed?
A: The Rota Rod is designed for laboratory environments, particularly in research institutions, universities, and pharmaceutical companies involved in animal studies. Its sturdy construction ensures suitability for high-frequency use.
Q: What benefits does the automatic cut-off feature provide?
A: The automatic cut-off ensures precise recording of the time each animal spends on the rotating rod, eliminating human error and enhancing the accuracy and repeatability of results.
Q: How accurate is the timing and speed control on this apparatus?
A: The digital timer achieves precision up to 0.1 seconds, and the speed is easily adjustable between 5 and 40 rpm, allowing for fine-tuned experimental setups to match specific research needs.
