Description EN:
MotoRater is a semi-automated system for rodent kinematic gait analysis with high sensitivity to evaluate 4 different motion modalities – over ground walking, skilled ladder walking, wading in water and swimming. In contrast to conventional methods, MotoRater allows testing animals in water, which offers the exceptional opportunity to evaluate severely impaired rodent models, which would not be able to support their body weight on solid ground.
