Grip Strength Meter

The Grip Strength Meter is widely used to evaluate the motor function, neuromuscular function in rodents such as rats or mice. By determining the peak force exerted by the rodent, it provides essential data for assessing strength and recovery. Our grip strength meter comes with the analysis software which can calculate the data automatically, making it convenient for biological statistics.

Overview

Grip Strength Meter

Researchers can easily and friendly operate our grip strength meter to accurately measurement peak force of rodent gripping. Watch video to see the operation of grip strength meter.

BioMed’s Grip Strength Meter offers full control through its intuitive on-screen LCD display in standalone mode. For enhanced data recording, our GSM software record the start time, end time, duration, average force, peak force etc., effortlessly export data as CSV files for efficient analysis, making research processes simpler and more effective.

Features and Benefits 

  • A Single grip strength meterfor both Rats and Mice, which can be used as a stand-alone tool or connected to PC via the USB port to monitor the experiment and record the data.
  • Equips with 2 grip mesh grid and 5 grip bars, to be suitable for forelimb grip strength test or hind limb grip strength test for Rat and Mouse.
  • Battery powered compact control unitwith intuitive setting and result view, last for using 20 hours.
  • Sturdy base with attached and 360-degree rotation, be adjusted according to the angle of animal activity, to ensure more accurate force measurement.
  • Highly reliable sensors, to achieve fine resolution 0.01N.
  • Multi-units available: Kgs, grams, LBs Newton to meet various demand of force measurement.
  • Easy to hold the animal by the tail or the neck’s skin.
  • Easy to Move the animal down until it grasps the grid/bar.
  • Easy to Pull the animal along the sensor axis until grip is released.
