Best choice for thermal preference phenotyping

Now available for tethered and non-tethered Mice

The state-of-the-art thermal preference assay designed with a circular shape. Fully automatic, up to 36 scientific publications

The TGR can clearly discriminates temperature-dependent phenotypes or temperature dependent drug...

Climbing behavior can be of interest for the most diverse applications.

The Ugo Basile automated system replicates its first manual application in the Pain field, for measuring Pain-Depressed behavior. It showed that, while mild analgesics block pain-depressed climbing, strong analgesics fail to alleviate depression of climbing (Santos et al. 2023, “Climbing behavior by mice as an...

Measures the weight distribution difference between an injured and unaffected hind paw of a mouse or rat. For the assessment of spontaneous pain in osteoarthritis, bone cancer, nerve injury and post-operative pain studies. Automatic operation reduces operator bias, optimizes repeatability and saves time. Easy to set up. Data visualization to monitor trends. Fast and easy cleaning...

Accurately measures the nociceptive threshold to infrared heat stimulus on the rat or mouse tail. Used for rapid screening of analgesic drugs by measuring reaction time to heat, even in anesthetized animals, crucial for repeated tests, thanks to the reflexive nature of the tail flick response.

Adjustable I.R. intensity, bright touch-screen display with intuitive controls. Comfortable...

Touch sensitivity is traditionally tested with Von Frey filaments, which is a tedious and experimenter-dependent assay.

The Dynamic Plantar Aesthesiometer is a unique system, which fully automates the amount of force applied by an electromagnetic, silent motor exerting from 0 to 100 grams at a rate adjustable from 0 to 50 seconds.

When the animal responds, by withdrawing its...

Touch sensitivity in unrestrained animals is traditionally tested with Von Frey filaments, which is a tedious and experimenter-dependent assay.

The Electronic Von Frey system solves the multiple measurement (i.e. multiple filaments) issue and the experimenter bias by using a hand-held force sensor with a rigid metal. The scientist gradually increases the force applied to the animal...

Used to measure the paw withdrawal reflex when the mouse or rat paw is unexpectedly touched. For evaluating mechanical allodynia and cutaneous sensation levels. Popular non-invasive technique.

Set of 20 monofilaments based on the Semmes Weinstein monofilament set. An ascending series of increasingly stiff filaments (from 0.008 to 300 grams). Features retractable head to protect the...

In the late ‘80s Dr. Hargreaves invented a method to assess thermal pain sensation in unrestrained rodents by stimulating the single hind paw and thus allowing for unilateral/contralateral experiments. Ugo Basile made a science-grade instrument to perform this stimulation and automatically measure response, it became a gold-standard with more than 2,600 publications.

A thermal...

Provides simple, reliable and precise calibration for Ugo Basile Plantar Test & Tail Flick and other infrared (I.R.) analgesia meters.

The Thermal Place Preference test can be considered an evolution of the Hot/Cold plate test and it allows monitoring of temperature preferences by measuring the time spent in two compartments set at two different temperatures.

This two temperature nociception test can be used in a mouse or rat and is composed of a standard hot/cold plate and of an hot plate, connected by a corridor. It...

The hot cold plate test has been the gold standard test for thermal pain tests in rodents for decades. Through the years the devices have been improving and the techniques have become more sophisticated, adding to constant temperature methods also other ones.

The Ugo Basile Hot/Cold plate test includes all the latest technologies necessary to run constant temperature, linear ramping...

Measures hypersensitivity to thermal (hot and cold) and/or mechanical stimulation of the orofacial area in rats (mouse adaptor available). For research into a wide range of pain conditions involving the trigeminal nerve.

High throughput with data recorded from up to 16 cages with ORO-Software. Real time data display. Non-invasive, respectful test. Comprehensive metrics and easy data...

Measures small changes in volume & oedema (fluid retention) to gauge the inflammatory response such as for anti-inflammatory screening tests.

Hands-free operation. Precision measurements. Detects and displays 0.01 ml changes in rodent paw volume. Easy data transfer and software included.

Measures the force on a rat or mouse paw according to the Randall-Selitto paw-pressure test, it enables rapid and precise screening of analgesic drugs for anti-nociceptive studies, in healthy or inflamed limbs. The device applies a steady increasing force, starting and stopping using the foot pedal. No calibration required. Digital model with force sensors and electronic unit is also...

A multi-function, non-invasive blood pressure recorder for rodents (mice and rats) for use in a wide range of scientific studies, where systolic and diastolic pressure needs to be measured in a non-invasive way in anesthetized or awake animals.

Combines functionality of multiple systems including pressure generation-pressure monitoring system, pulse amplifier, thermal-array analog...

Invasive arterial or venous blood pressure measurement during animal surgery. For urodynamic, intrauterine and intracranial studies. Also suitable for intensive care.

Connects to data acquisition systems such as our DataCapsule-Evo. High quality, robust, reusable and cost effective.

Patented non-invasive vital signs monitor. Measures heart rate, arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2), breath rate, and temperature (optional) of anesthetized and conscious small laboratory animals of various sizes.

Clinically validated and cited in a range of published studies including respiratory, neonatal, hypertension and brain injury.
