An automated SD cylindrical apparatus (Pinnacle Technology, Lawrence, KS) containing a bar spanning the enclosure was used for all SD procedures. Animals were individually housed in the apparatus for at least 24 hours prior to the beginning of the experiments with fresh bedding, food, and water, and were returned to the apparatus in between trials. To induce SD, the bar was rotated continuously by a motor at approximately 3 rpm with random reversals in rotational direction to prevent subjects from acquiring brief sleep periods through adaptation to the pattern of rotation. A trained experimenter verified visually that the bar rotated at all times and that mice did not use any alternative strategies to sleep.

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.
