The rat adaptor is a specialized tool designed to integrate seamlessly with stereotaxic instruments, offering a robust and precise method for securing the rat's head during neurological and other scientific procedures. By utilizing a combination of incisors grip, a nose clip, and provisions for ear bars, this adaptor ensures the rat's head is held firmly, providing stability necessary for accurate and consistent experimental outcomes. Its ability to adjust both vertically and horizontally makes it versatile for rats of varying sizes and weights, making it an indispensable asset in laboratories focusing on rat models for research.(Note: ear bars are not included)
This adaptor's design prioritizes the secure and humane holding of the rat, employing a three-point fixation system (incisors grip, nose clip, and ear bars) to minimize stress and movement during procedures. It boasts a substantial range of adjustability, with a vertical movement allowance of up to 30 mm and a horizontal extension of up to 50 mm, accommodating rats of different sizes with ease. The scaling resolution of 100 μm ensures that adjustments can be made with precision, allowing researchers to replicate positioning accurately across different sessions and subjects. Although ear bars are not included, the adaptor is designed to be compatible with them, offering flexibility in securing the rat's head based on the specific requirements of the procedure.
