A repetitive movement detector used for automatic monitoring and quantification of scratching in mice

We have designed an economical non-invasive movement detector for small animal studies and used it for monitoring and quantifying itch in mice. The system is based on a sensitive force transducer positioned below a recording platform holding a lightweight polystyrene recording box in which an animal...
