New sociability cage: made for video tracking
15 March 2010
A complete solution for sociability tests with mice. That is what Noldus offers with the addition of their new three-chambered sociability cage. Made with clear acryllic walls, it is especially designed for optimal video tracking with EthoVision® XT. It also combines perfectly with the Multiple Body Points Module for detailed tracking of the mouse’s nose point, center point, and tail base, without the need for markers or sensors.
This new solution gets researchers exactly the parameters they need, such as how much time the mouse spends in each chamber, the number of transitions between the chambers, and the time spent investigating the partner animal. And to further detail the results, the Manual Event Recorder integrated in EthoVision XT Base allows scoring of additional behaviors, such as sniffing.
See for yourself that Noldus provides you with all you need to automate your sociability test.
