Sleep fragmentation chamber

Manufactured by Lafayette Instrument
Sourced in United States

The sleep fragmentation chamber is a laboratory equipment designed to disrupt the normal sleep patterns of test subjects. It functions by introducing controlled environmental stimuli that interrupt the sleep cycle, enabling researchers to study the effects of sleep fragmentation on various physiological and psychological aspects.

Sleep Fragmentation in Bone Marrow Transplant Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For sleep fragmentation experiments, female mice were placed in
a sleep fragmentation chamber (Lafayette Instrument, Lafayette, IN,
USA). The sweep bar moved along the bottom of the cage every 2 minutes
during the light cycle (Zeitgeber time 0–12). The sweep bar
automatically shut off and was stationary during the dark cycle
(Zeitgeber time 12–24). Control mice receiving undisturbed sleep
were placed in sleep fragmentation chambers with stationary sweep bars.
For bone marrow transplantation experiments, mice were placed in sleep
fragmentation cages 2–4 weeks after the transplant.

Sleep Fragmentation Protocol for Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For sleep fragmentation studies, mice were placed in a sleep fragmentation chamber (Lafayette Instrument, Lafayette, IN) at the same time as initiation of special diet feeding. The sweep bar moved along the bottom of the cage every 2 minutes during the light cycle (ZT0–12). The sweep bar automatically shut off and was stationary during the dark cycle (ZT12–24). Control mice that received undisturbed sleep were placed in sleep fragmentation chambers with stationary sweep bars. For the control experiment in Extended Data Figure 1f-h, the sweep bar moved along the bottom of the cage every 2 minutes during the dark cycle (ZT12–0) and automatically shut off and was stationary during the light cycle (ZT0–12)

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
