Stereotaxic Frames

World Precision Instrument stereotaxic frames are offered in two styles of frames:

• U-frame Stereotaxic designed for use with rats and small animals. It is ideal for researchers in need of a versatile, reliable instrument for stereotaxic procedures with small animals. These stereotaxic frames are built around the time-proven U-frame design concept, providing stability and adaptability to most species. Precision alignment ensures accurate placement of electrodes, micropipettes and other devices.
• Compact Mouse Stereotaxic for use with mice and neonatal rats. Designed specifically for knock-out and transgenic mice these compact stereotaxic frames use an adapter block to replace the traditional U-frame assembly. This provides easy access to the animal and offers an open working area for extra surgical instruments.

U-frame Stereotaxic Models

• Base plate size : 400 mm x 255 mm
• Working distance in 3 dimension is 80 mm with precise alignment to 0.1 mm resolution for non-digital models and 0.01 mm for digital models
• Vertical direction: 180° rotation and lock at any angles
• Horizontal direction: 360° rotation and lock at any angles
• Dual-lead screws ensure stable, accurate and smooth manipulation
• Curved nose clamp design secures the head of animals
• Ear bars with laser engraved scales (1mm resolution)
