The Catalepsy Bar Test involves placing the forepaws of a rodent onto a bar and timing how long it takes the subject to remove one or both paws from the bar. The automated Catalepsy Bar test has 4 or 6 lanes for the simultaneous study of multiple subjects with adjustable bar height to ensure perfect placement for each subject. Sensors to detect when an animal removes its paws from the bar and included software logs the time at which this occurs. Models available for mice and rats.
