Snsek-SA-STT Tail suspension test system

Brand: Penncentury SNSEK

Model:Snsek-SA-STT 

The tail suspension test system suspends the experimental animals with their heads downward by fixing their tails. The animals struggle desperately in this environment and try to escape but cannot, thus providing an unavoidable oppressive environment. After a period of experiment, a series of parameters of the animals in this environment that produce a desperate immobility state are recorded. This typical "immobility state" exhibited by the animals reflects a state called "behavioral despair state". This behavioral despair model is similar to depression and is sensitive to most antidepressant drugs. Its efficacy is significantly correlated with clinical efficacy, so it is widely used in the preliminary selection of antidepressant drugs.
