Product Information

Agricultural settings tend to have a higher risk of mouse infestations than urban settings. However, the severity of the infestation and risk of structural damage can be higher in the latter.

Differential effects of nasal inflammation and odor deprivation on layer-specific degeneration of the mouse olfactory bulb. eNeuro. 2020; 7. Preclinical animal models provide a critical tool for assessing the efficacy of pharmacological treatments on attention. The beneficial effects of ADHD medications, such as methylphenidate (MPH) and atomoxetine (ATX), on attention have been documented in humans [ 31, 32, 33], with similar effects also described in rodents [ 34, 35]. Specifically, in a rodent adapted task of sustained attention, the rodent continuous performance task, MPH and ATX have been shown to improve attention performance with different effects on impulsivity [ 35, 36, 37, 38]. As these compounds differ in their mechanisms of action, with MPH inhibiting both NA and DA reuptake and ATX primarily inhibiting NA reuptake [ 39, 40], they can be used to understand the role of these neurotransmitter systems in modulating attention. In the absence of a mouse version of the Posner task, the effect of MPH and ATX on attention orienting in mice has not been assessed. Nazareth L, St John J, Murtaza M, Ekberg J.

Effect of early olfactory training on olfactory recovery after nasal endoscopy in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis and olfactory impairment. Am J Transl Res. 2022;14:2600–8.After mice showed stable orienting, the effects of attention-modulating drugs, MPH and ATX, were assessed. MPH, ATX and saline were administered in a pseudo-randomised cross-over design with a 3- to 4-day washout period between each administration. Mice were subjected to a minimum of two consecutive days of baseline training to ensure continued stable performance between each probe. Mice not reaching criteria (>70% accuracy or completion of 120 trials, excluding anticipations errors) were subjected to further baseline sessions until criteria were met.

They can also experience all five of the taste groups which are sweet, sour, salt, bitter, and umami. Believe it or not, mice can have food preferences that are handed down by their mother through her milk. Touch Mice make use of all five senses, though scent and touch could definitely be described as the most important. The hearing would then probably come a close second, with taste and sight bringing up the rear.
