Resting Time Between Behavioral Test #interval

Resting Time Between Behavioral Test

refer to: What Is The Optimum Resting Time Between Behavioral Tasks?

  • The exact days needed for an animal to recover is unknown and not officially set.
  • A general suggestion would be to wait a minimum of 3 days before administering the next behavioral test to an animal. Given that it is not always practical and realistic to wait for one or even two weeks before exposing the animal to the next behavioral task, the researcher should consider applying the most common resting time found in the references.
  • A reduction in the inter-test interval does not have a significant effect on the performance of the subjects on the various tests, except only the performance of the animals on the open-field test. This difference in the open-field results signifies that the neurological test is a rather stressful experience for the animals and should be avoided or if needed it should be performed at the end of a battery.
