Aim:
To develop a type of multifunctional training examining system of rats controlled by computer-gradient voltage automatically driving rats and computer showing, recording and analysis experimental results at right moment.
Methods:
Adopting the imitating Windows, using Turbo C2.0 to edit software and operating the interface of hardware directly by means of TC, so that collecting, processing of signals and managing of experimental instruments are completed.
Results:
This system has realized that gradient voltage automatically driving rats; phonic, optical and electrical conditioned stimulation; multiple path automatically set; the results in accordance with data base are directly processed by SAS software.
Conclusion:
This system has a high-grade automation. The operation is simple and convenient. And data processing is scientific and accurate. It is also suitable for developing of acoustic, visual and another special memory model of rats.
