Overview

The mouse visual water maze experiment is an experiment that forces experimental animals (rats, mice) to swim and learn to find hidden platforms in the water. It is mainly used to test the learning and memory abilities of experimental animals in spatial position and orientation (spatial positioning). Widely used in scientific research and computer-aided teaching in multiple disciplines such as learning and memory, Alzheimer's disease, hippocampus/exohippocampus research, intelligence and aging, new drug development/screening/evaluation, pharmacology, toxicology, preventive medicine, neurobiology, animal psychology, and behavioral biology, it has been widely recognized worldwide and is particularly important for medical schools to conduct behavioral research

mouseVisual Water Mazeexperimental system

◆ Product Description:

mouseVisual Water MazeExperiment is an experiment that forces experimental animals (rats, mice) to swim and learn to find hidden platforms in the water. It is mainly used to test the learning and memory abilities of experimental animals in spatial position and orientation (spatial positioning). Widely used in learning and memory, Alzheimer's disease, hippocampus/Research on Hippocampus, Intelligence and Aging, New Drug Development/filter/The scientific research and computer-aided teaching in multiple disciplines such as evaluation, pharmacology, toxicology, preventive medicine, neurobiology, animal psychology, and behavioral biology have been widely recognized around the world, and are classic experiments for medical schools to conduct behavioral research, especially learning and memory research.

◆ Experimental principle:

Although mice are born swimmers, they dislike being in water and swimming is a physically demanding activity for them. They instinctively search for a place to rest in the water. The act of searching for a resting place involves a complex memory process, including collecting visual information related to spatial positioning, processing, organizing, memorizing, reinforcing, and then retrieving this information, with the aim of successfully navigating and finding hidden stations in the water, ultimately escaping from the water.

Product features:

1.Constant temperature water tank, with a constant water temperature during the experiment22-26degree

2.The software system is simple and clear with * functions, making it easy to get started, saving training costs, and offering a wide range of parameters.

3. The frame is made of aluminum alloy, which is sturdy, beautiful, and easy to disassemble; The water basin adoptsABSEngineering plastics, lightweight and leak proof; The overall use of standardized industrial design

4.Core algorithm, effectively ensuring anti-interference and accuracy of recognition

5.Users can set independent experimental data archive folders for each other, Easy to manage experimental data

6.By using video camera tracking technology, the experimental process has been automated, avoiding subjective errors introduced by manual counting and the impact on experimental animals The interference has increased the authenticity and reliability of the experimental results.

7. Targeting scientific research and computer-aided teaching（CAI）, capable of recording raw video images, And provide a complete experimental database function as a real record of the research and material for future teaching demonstrations.

8.The trajectory point coordinate sequence data and indicator results can be imported intoExcel, making it convenient for users toExcelTheSPSSTheSASFurther analysis and processing will be conducted in the analysis and statistical software.

Technical parameters:
