Compact Stereotaxic Instruments for Mouse Only
The Harvard Apparatus Compact Stereotaxic Instrument for Mouse is a high quality stereotaxic instrument ideal for a number of applications. The dual-lead screw design ensures stable, accurate and smooth manipulations while the laser engraved scales offer ease of reading. The instrument offers 180° vertical rotation and 360° horizontal rotation, with the ability to lock at any angle.
