Abstract

The invention discloses an annular platform used for testing the learning and memory capacity of a mouse and a control method thereof. The annular platform comprises a support (1), a working platform (2), a camera (5), a sound box (6), an information acquisition controller (7), a computer (8), etc. The computer (8) outputs a control signal according to a designed test plan and displays test data and images on an operational interface. The technology and method having good versatility and expandability can not only be applied to the programmed control and test of the annular platform, but also be applied to other ethological apparatuses such as a water labyrinth, an autonomous activity apparatus, an exploration exercise tester, etc. after undergoing corresponding transformations.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention is a behavioral instrument for testing the learning and memory ability of mice, and relates to a ring platform device capable of providing electrical stimulation and infrared detection functions to mice and its control method, which is used in the fields of medical biology and pharmacy Research. Background technique [0002] Mice have a characteristic of aversion to bright light. In a bright environment, mice seek dark places to hide. In order to find the hiding place correctly, the clues in the environment must be used for spatial positioning. The ability to learn and remember spatially changes in mice that receive different treatments, such as drugs or the effects of aging. [0003] The circular platform (CP) was first used by Barnes in 1979 to test the spatial learning and memory ability of rats, so it is also called the Barnes maze. There are few studies on its use in spatial learning and memory in mice. [0004] The circular pla...
