About this item
The social defeat test allows for study of recurrent defeat and is often used in the assessment of psychiatric compounds.
- Clear acrylic construction
- Apparatus includes one arena and two mesh enclosures
Repetitive exposure encourages anhedonia, social avoidance behaviors, and anxiety, and although relatively new (developed in 2006), is seen as a simple yet powerful model of social interaction. The social defeat apparatus comes with two social defeat cages, an arena, and a clear divider for use in the home cage. Additional cages or modifications can be made upon request.
