Measuring the forelimb and hindlimb grip strength.

Grip strength

Apparatus

Our grip-strength apparatus is composed of:

  • an altuglass structure: corridor on a pedestal,
  • a strength sensor at each end of the corridor,
  • a display of the pulling forces or pressure on sensors.

 

Software

The analog output signals may be connected to a computer to get response curves.
