Anxiety and Activity Tests –Running Wheel Activity
Assess physical fitness of rodents
Key Research Model Applications of Running Wheel Activity
Mice housed in home-cages equipped with a running wheel will voluntarily start to run in it. Voluntary wheel running is routinely used to assess the general health of mice, physical performance and relevant model exercise training regimes. This setup enables the discrimination of pharmacological efficacy of novel compounds on activity, endurance and circadian rhythms in rodents. Rotations are detected at high temporal resolution and subsequently processed and analysed with the AHCODA™ software.
Mouse Behavioral Testing Made Simple.
Explore our extensive portfolio of validated and tailored behavioral and cognitive rodent tests designed to advance your research.
Running Wheel Activity Sample Data
Example actogram of recorded individual mouse data.
When placed in a cage equipped with a Running Wheel, mice require 5 – 10 days to reach a stable activity level and circadian rhythm (~8 days for this mouse).

AAALAC Accreditation
InnoSer has earned the AAALAC accreditation, demonstrating our commitment to responsible animal care and use. AAALAC International is a nonprofit organization that promotes the humane treatment of animals in science through voluntary accreditation and assessment programs. Our accreditation is valid for three years, incl. 2023. Read more about the AAALAC accreditation programme here.
Animal Welfare
The 3Rs impact everything from policy and regulatory change to the development and uptake of new technologies and approaches. This is why InnoSer has ongoing commitment and monitoring of these processes. The steps we practice maximize our ability to replace, reduce and refine animal involvement and facilitate our commitment to these principles when it comes to research and drug development.
