MODEL MK-350HC

HOT/COLD PLATE ANALGESIA METER


MK-350HC Hot/Cold Plate Analgesia Meter has been developed for both conventional Hot Plate tests and Cold Pain test.

When a rat is placed on the hot plate kept at a given temperature, it starts to show, depending upon the preset temperature, the responses such as

1) Licking the paw    2) Rearing    3) Jumping    4) Shaking the paw    5) Shivering

When the desired response is recognized, step on the pedal switch or press the START-STOP switch and the response time will be displayed on the LCD.

Using the Data Collection Software (Windows Version) the data obtained can be exported to a personal computer and saved as a CSV file.

Temperature can be set from 2 to 80°C by 0.5°C steps.

Operation is very simple.
