Researcher, Imperial College National Heart and Lung Institute

Julian was fantastic, he patiently walked me through the steps for diagnosing issues with our syringe pump. We found it was a simple belt that was broken and he sent out a replacement part the same day.

Measure muscle hyperalgesia in rats and mice with the Grip Strength Meter, which gauges the forelimb grip force using a digital force transducer. Simply hold the animal by the tail and gently dangle it over the wire mesh plate until the animal grasps the plate with its forepaws. The force transducer, connected with the wire mesh plate, measures the strength of the animal at the time of the test. The battery-operated, electronic control device calculates the average of three measurements, and it holds the last maximum force in a “peak and hold” type readout until you reset it. This unit features:

  • Mouse and rat wire mesh grid plates included
  • Maximum force range is 2,000 gm (10% over range allowed). Higher ranges are available by special order
  • 1 gram increment readings
  • Suction feet on the heavy, anodized base plate resist even large pulling forces
  • Battery-operated or line powered controller
  • One year warranty
