An improved method of recording rat tracks for measurement of the sciatic functional index of de Medinaceli.

Abstract:

:The use of paper impregnated with Bromphenol blue for recording normal rat footprints is described. Because paper provides a better grip than X-ray film for the paws of the rats, the resulting tracks make manual scoring easier and more accurate. In addition, the cost of this technique is considerably lower.
