The locomotor activity was measured in a SuperFlex Fusion open field cage (40 cm × 40 cm × 30 cm, Omnitech Electronics Inc., Columbus, OH). Individual mice was allowed to acclimate to the single cage for 2–4 h prior to the test. The animals were gently placed in the center of the test apparatus (40 cm × 40 cm × 40 cm) and allowed to explore the field for 30 min. Locomotor activity of the mice was monitored and recorded with infrared motion sensors mounted on top of the cage. The total distance traveled was analyzed using Fusion software (Omnitech Electronics Inc., Columbus, OH).

The locomotor activity was tested as described previously [33 , 43 , 57 (link)] and measured in the SuperFlex Fusion open field cages (40 × 40 × 30 cm, Omnitech Electronics Inc., Columbus, OH). The mice were acclimated to the testing room for 2–3 h and were then allowed to freely explore for 30 min under the illuminated conditions. The movements of mice were monitored by infrared photosensors on the cage and the total distance traveled was analyzed by the Fusion software (Omnitech Electronics Inc., Columbus, OH).

Motor activity is measured in a SuperFlex Fusion open-air cage (40 × 40 × 30 cm³, Omnitech Electronics Inc., Columbus, OH, USA). The animals were gently placed in the center of the test apparatus and allowed to explore the field for 30 min. The movement of the mice was monitored using an infrared light sensor mounted on the cage, and the total distance traveled was analyzed using Fusion software (Omnitech Electronics Inc., Columbus, OH, USA) (22 (link)).

Quantifying Locomotor Activity in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

The locomotor activity of the mice was assayed in SuperFlex Fusion open‐field cages (40 × 40 × 30 cm, Omnitech Electronics Inc.). A single mouse was gently placed in the corner of the cage and allowed to explore the field freely under illuminated conditions for 30 min. Mouse movements were monitored and recorded using infrared motion sensors attached to the tops of the cages. The total distance traveled was quantified using Automated Fusion Software (Omnitech Electronics Inc.).

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.
