The Just for Mouse™ Stereotaxic Instrument was specifically designed for use with knock-out and transgenic mice and it's even better with Stoelting’s Motorized Manipulator Arms. It is our smallest and most economic stereotaxic instrument. The Just for Mouse™ includes a 100 micron, 3-axes left-hand manipulator arm, mouse snout clamp and tooth bar, dual-sided ear bars, and a corner clamp probe holder.

Stoelting’s Motorized Stereotaxic Manipulator Arms are designed for fast, accurate positioning during stereotaxic surgery. Ideal for inexperienced users, the motorized manipulator arms employ a touchscreen display for easy-to-control movement of each axis. Manual movement is available anytime. Optional Drill feature available.

Warmer Ready Base: Stoelting Stereotaxic Instruments are the ONLY stereotaxic instrument on the market with an integrated warming base included on all units! Simply purchase Stoelting’s Rodent Warmer Control Box X1 (item 53800), or Rodent Warmer Control Box X2 (item 53850) to use the warming function.

Calibrating Screen:

 

The screen may become un-calibrated during shipping or over time. 

When to Calibrate the Screen:

-        If the buttons are not responding

-        If the screen does not respond to pressing buttons

-        If you have to press down with a lot of pressure

 

To Calibrate the Screen:

-        Turn off power

-        Press down on the screen with figure anywhere while power if off

-        With finger pressing down on the screen turn on the power

 

During bootup, the screen detects the PRESS and goes into calibration mode.  During Calibration the screen will display blinking dots one at a time.  Press the MIDDLE of each dot as they appear.  Be careful to make sure you press the middle of each dot.  The screen will go through Calibration 2 times and when complete the screen will return to the home screen.  If you find the calibration unsatisfactory you can always repeat the calibration.

Terms Defined:

A-P          = Anterior – Posterior Axis Coordinate   

M-L          = Medial – Lateral Axis Coordinate

D_V         = Dorsal-Ventral  Axis Coordinate

Bregma  = The junction of the sagittal and coronal sutures at the top of the skull (www.freedictionary.com)

Home     = Zero Point of reference

Saved Offset = Distance Value added to axis position when the play button is pressed or when Routing mode is engaged.   

Routing Resolution = This is the distance the drill will travel each pass until it reaches the D-V offset. The routing resolution is 0.05mm for each route.

 

Routing:

The routing feature is used to cut out a piece of the skull. The D-V routing distance is .05mm for each step.  This means that if the D-V routing offset is .10mm it will take 2 passes to complete the route.

1: Move the drill to the start position of the routing

2: Press the Keypad button for the A-P.

               A: Press the Clear button
