Variable analysis
- Chronic diet procedure
- Latency to fall from the rotarod
- Time spent on the rotarod (average latency to fall across three trials)
- Rotarod cylinder apparatus dimensions (9.5 cm in diameter, 15 cm wide)
- Rotarod speed (starts at 5 rotations per minute, accelerates to 20 rotations per minute over 180 seconds)
- Rotarod testing time (10 AM, except for the 8-hour acute withdrawal timepoint at 6 PM)
- Rat placement on the rotarod (placed back on the apparatus if they fell off before the full trial was completed during training)

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.
