Tail flick apparatus is an analgesia meter and is helpful in determining pain sensitivity accurately and reproducibly in rats and mice. The instrument has a shutter controlled lamp as a heat source. Activation of an intense light beam to the tail through opening the shutter results in a discomfort at some point when the animal will flick its tail out of the beam. The photo detector detects the tail motion. The total time elapsed between hutter opening and animal's reaction is displayed on an easily read display. Data can be printed directly or may be collected via RS-232 port. If you are interested in using this device for your research, please provide your street address. I will be happy to send you more information about Tail Flick apparatus. GHOSH
