Any indication that could use animal activity behavior as a surrogate pharmacodynamic marker.

E.g. psychomotor effects, circadian variation, stress, analgesia, activity phenotype, animal acclimation period

  • Simultaneous recording of animal’s activity data while performing brain microdialysis and/or automated blood sampling
  • Correlation of animal’s activity data with Neurotransmitter release or extracellular levels of other markers
  • Capture unexpected psychomotor changes of test compounds following treatments
  • Facilitates activity correlations with other parameters, such as drug administration, body temperature or bile flow
