The Analgesiometer is a specialized pharmacological research instrument used to measure pain threshold and evaluate the effectiveness of analgesic drugs in laboratory animals. This high-precision Analgesiometer provides researchers with a reliable method to induce thermal or mechanical stimuli and record the reaction time, ensuring high reproducibility in drug testing. Whether you are conducting trials for new pain-relief formulations or neurological research, the Analgesiometer is an essential tool for every pharmaceutical laboratory.
Our advanced Analgesiometer models, including the Analgesiometer with PID Controller, offer superior temperature stability and digital accuracy. By using a controlled heating element or radiant heat source, the Analgesiometer allows for the precise measurement of "Tail Flick" or "Hot Plate" reactions. This equipment is a core component of our Pharmaceutical Equipments range, built to withstand rigorous daily lab use.

Primary Uses & Applications
The Analgesiometer is primarily utilized in pre-clinical trials to determine the potency of analgesic compounds. It is widely used in "Tail Flick" tests to measure spinal reflex and in "Eddy’s Hot Plate" tests for supraspinal response evaluation. Pharmacologists rely on the Analgesiometer to study neurobiology, inflammation, and the side effects of narcotic and non-narcotic drugs in rats and mice.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. How does the Analgesiometer measure pain sensitivity?
The Analgesiometer applies a constant thermal stimulus. The time taken by the animal to show a reaction (like tail flicking) is recorded as the latency period, which indicates the pain threshold.
2. What is the advantage of a PID Controller in an Analgesiometer?
A PID controller ensures that the temperature remains perfectly constant without fluctuations, providing highly accurate and repeatable data for pharmaceutical research.
3. Can this device be used for both rats and mice?
Yes, the Analgesiometer is designed with adjustable settings and platforms to safely accommodate both rats and mice for various behavioral tests.
4. Is the stimulus intensity adjustable?
Absolutely. Users can precisely control the heat intensity and cutoff time to ensure the safety of the laboratory animals while obtaining valid scientific results.
