Study Exercise Physiology, Gas Metabolism, or Endurancein rodents with the NEW Harvard Apparatus RodentTreadmills!

Treadmill Systems are available in a number of different configuration options including two, four, and six lane for high throughput screening.

Available features include manual or motorized adjustment of incline, and optional airtight runways for metabolic studies.

A continuous conveyor type belt and DC servo motor with optical encoder allow precise speed control with user selected speed from 0 to 100 meters per minute.

Several features assist in animal acclimation time. The front of the treadmill is a dark acrylic which the animals find comforting. The independent grids are built into each channel to significantly shorten training time. The special design of the rear grid bars and treadmill belt provide tactile warning that the animal is approaching the grid bars. Learning to avoid negative stimuli is quicker.

Airtight runway versions can be combined with the Harvard Apparatus Metabolic Monitoring System to study gas exchange on each independent lane. (A bibliography is available upon request.)

Harvard Apparatus is a global developer, manufacturer and distributor of innovative and specialized products to enhance bioresearch.
