A Metabolic Treadmill for small laboratory animals is a fully computerized, electronically controlled system for exercise calorimetry or investigating the effectiveness of drugs or impaired motor coordination of the skeletal muscles. Available for mice and rats, it has one compartment, air-tight cover, and perforated lid for training purposes. The system comes as a stand-alone unit, which is connected to a respirometry system – a module of PhenoMaster.

On-demand, the floor grid can be equipped to apply an electric stimulus.

The system runs according to a user-defined exercise protocol created with the help of user-friendly software. It allows a seamless integration of Stellar telemetry for various physiological data recordings at freely moving animals.
