Compact Mouse Stereotaxic Frames
The World Precision Instruments Compact Mouse Stereotaxic Frames was developed for laboratories using knock-out and transgenic mice.
Features & Benefits
- Designed specifically for mice the frame offers a more open working area for extra surgical instruments then a tradition U-frame
- Compact frame footprint of just 225 mm x 225 mm is ideal for laboratories with small spaces
- Accuracy of non-digital models is 100 μm, and the accuracy of digital models is 10 μm
- Double-lead screw design, more stable and accurate operation
- Ear bar is made of polyoxymethylene resin, with two types of head holder provide a secure hold without compressing the sides of the skull inward
- Laser engraved scales shown on the ear bars make the unit easy to operate (1mm accuracy)
Applications
- Mice and neonatal rat surgery
- Electrophysiology applications
Overview
This stereotaxic instrument is designed to use an adapter block to replace the traditional U-frame assembly. It satisfies the requirement of holding the mouse or neonatal rat firmly without the use of a traditional U-frame assembly. This instrument provides easy access to the animal and offers an open working area for additional surgical instruments.
Digital Stereotaxic versions features sealed electronic sensors and an easy-to-read LCD display with 10-micron resolution in all three axes. A zeroing function aids in targeting specific coordinates. The battery-powered display is electronically quiet, making it useful in electrophysiology experiments as well as keeping the workbench tidy.
