Treadmill has reverse, constant or
variable speed
The new reversing feature allow the rotarods to 'rock', reversing during the experiment, which adds a new experimental paradigm and a new metric to the usefulness of these instruments
Two innovations set these new Rotarods apart from other treadmills, says Harvard Apparatus The new reversing feature allow the rotarods to 'rock', reversing during the experiment, which adds a new experimental paradigm and a new metric to the usefulness of these instruments
With programmability of the acceleration phase and speed, the new design is improved for testing endurance and coordination.
These features can be used in either mode, thus broadening the scope of constant speed or accelerating speed experiments.
Simple to use, and effective to perform more definitive conditioning, motor coordination, or endurance tests.
Five lanes allow high throughput screening and testing multiple subjects at the same time.
