If weight-bearing bones aren't getting 'worked out' like usual, they may begin to deteriorate. When mice on Earth were kept ...

Study found that reduced neurotensin in obese mice prevented dopamine from triggering the usual pleasure response to ...

In this project, funded by an AWI Refinement Grant, we tested whether raising male mice in partially divided cages affected aggression and behavioral performance from weaning through 180 days old in ...

Inter-male aggression in mice continues to challenge laboratory animal husbandry personnel, as intervention strategies are typically applied at the cage level without a good understanding of how ...

To test the memory of mice, the researchers placed two identical black rods in the cage for twenty minutes for old mice to explore. The next day, the mice received one of the black rods again and a ...

It could sing. And so he did what anyone might have done: he captured the mouse and put it in a cage. There it produced a lyrical tune as if it were a bird. A musician named Martha Grim visited ...

Because rats and mice are better able to take control of their microenvironment in an enriched cage, macroenvironmental conditions become much less influential. Such macroenvironmental conditions ...

NASA’s study on mice in space reveals how microgravity weakens bones, highlighting risks for astronauts and solutions for ...

Transfer your mice to the CLAMS cages. Learn how to fill feeders and interrupt the measurements to refill feeders. Learn how to stop the experiment at the end and prepare your cages for washing. Fill ...

To overcome these problems, researchers are turning more to automated systems that monitor mice in their home cages, where they are least stressed. This improves the animals’ welfare ...

Like house mice, the laboratory animals are flight animals. In nature they spend most of their time in underground burrows. They are good diggers and climbers and are primarily nocturnal. When they ...
