47600 - Mouse Rota-Rod
The “Rota-Rod” technique is essential in screening drugs which have side effects on motor coordination.
Ugo Basile Rota-Rods, the original Rota-Rods, have been updated after years of consulting leading researchers in behavior and pharmacology.

Ugo Basile Rota-Rods, the original Rota-Rods, have been updated after years of consulting leading researchers in behavior and pharmacology.
The new Rota-Rod for Mice has five lanes, and operates in constant speed, accelerating, and reverse / rocking modes! The tiltable digital panel shows accrued rotations and time on the rod.
The Rota-Rod includes software for connection to PC, and parameters can be controlled via your PC!
