InliCage for Rats by NewBehavior
用于大鼠的InliCage

The same technology that has been proven extensively in the InliCage for mice is now available for rats!
用于小鼠的InliCage技術(shù)已經(jīng)被廣泛證明，現(xiàn)在可以用于大鼠了。

InliCage for rats is a novel, yet tested approach for studying cognitive behavior of rats without handling by the experimenter. The system takes advantage of transponder technology for the individual recognition and treatment of animals.
用于大鼠的InliCage是一個(gè)新型的，被測(cè)試過的方法，用于研究大鼠認(rèn)知行為，無需實(shí)驗(yàn)者手動(dòng)操作。系統(tǒng)采用了異頻雷達(dá)收發(fā)機(jī)技術(shù)，用于單獨(dú)識(shí)別和處理動(dòng)物。

InliCage for rats records and tests a wide range of behavioral abilities: exploration, approach/avoidance, spatial preference, spatial patrolling （including short-term spatial memory tasks）, spatial avoidance, and even temporal-spatial learning. Individual rats are easily trained to work in a permanently assigned corner and can be subjected to long/lasting operant conditioning schedules such as fixed ratio and DRL schedules.
用于大鼠的InliCage記錄并測(cè)試廣闊范圍的行為學(xué)能力：探索，接近/躲避，空間偏好，空間*（包括短期空間記憶任務(wù)），空間躲避，以及時(shí)間—空間學(xué)習(xí)。單獨(dú)的大鼠很容易被訓(xùn)練在一個(gè)*的角落工作，并且可以被指派長(zhǎng)期/持續(xù)操作條件時(shí)間表例如固定比率和DRL時(shí)間表。

Each InliCage for rats unit allows simultaneous monitoring of up to 16 rats （according to the strict Swiss animal welfare regulations） depending on the task. Experimental and control animals can be kept in the same or in separate cages. The system is scalable and can be set up in different configurations, such as horizontal layout or stacked into racks.
每個(gè)用于大鼠的InliCage允許根據(jù)任務(wù)需要同時(shí)檢測(cè)zui多16只大鼠（根據(jù)嚴(yán)格的瑞士動(dòng)物福利法規(guī)）。實(shí)驗(yàn)動(dòng)物和控制動(dòng)物可以處在同一個(gè)籠子或不同的籠子。系統(tǒng)可升級(jí)，也可具有不同的配置，例如水平擺放或在架子上疊放。
