As shown in fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4, the infrared pair tube is used for detecting the time (t2) when the small animal moves from the movable chamber to the electric door and the time (t3) when the small animal moves from the automatic door to the gold-plated backing plate, and the time information is sent to the micro-control computer for recording and storing.
As shown in fig. 1, fig. 2, fig. 3, fig. 4 and fig. 5, before the start of the experiment, the water-thirsty animals (no water inflow within 48 hours) were placed in an animal activity room to be adapted to the environment, and the experiment was started after 5 minutes. At the moment, the electric door is in a closed state, and the movable water tank places the metal vessel containing the water source (drinkable or non-drinkable) at the tail end of the movable corridor in a preset mode (randomly generated by the system).
As shown in fig. 1, fig. 2, fig. 3, fig. 4 and fig. 5, after the experiment begins for a plurality of times (t1, reference time: 15s, adjustable), the electric door is automatically opened, and the animal enters the movable corridor through the electric door as the animal needs to find a water source; when entering the power gate, the animal is detected by the infrared pair tube installed in the corridor and the time is recorded (t 2). The animal will find its end all the way along the corridor and when it enters the gilded pad, it will be detected by the infrared pair tube there and the time at this point will be recorded (t 3); after the animal is placed on the backing plate, the liquid contained in the metal vessel positioned in front of the animal can be detected, and whether the animal licks water is determined; a. if the animal licks water, the signal can be monitored through a water licking circuit, the time (t4) for the first time of licking water is recorded to control the water drinking amount of the animal every time, after the animal licks water for 2s for the first time (the time is adjustable), the push plate can automatically push the animal backwards through the movable corridor and enable the animal to enter the movable chamber, meanwhile, the electric door is closed, and the test is finished; b. if the animal does not lick water, after the animal enters the gold-plated backing plate (t3, 20s, adjustable), the push plate automatically pushes the animal backwards through the movable corridor and enables the animal to enter the movable chamber, meanwhile, the electric door is closed, and the test is finished; typically, 30-50 tests can be performed per animal per day.
As shown in fig. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, the water source contained in the metal vessel in each experiment is drinkable or non-drinkable, and is matched with different smells; for example, the potable water source is a: purified water with concentration of 10 -6 Isoamyl acetate (colorless, very light banana flavor); the non-potable water source is B: purified water with concentration of 10 -6 Isoamyl acetate (colorless, very light banana flavor) + quinoline at 10% concentration (colorless, odorless); after several tests (typically about 10 times), animals will associate different odors with whether the water source is potable; the resulting animal smells the odor associated with the potable water source (e.g., the lighter banana flavor in this example)) Water can be licked automatically; the animal was demonstrated to have the ability to distinguish between the odors associated with the non-potable water source (e.g., the stronger banana flavor in this example) without licking the water.
As shown in fig. 1, fig. 2, fig. 3, fig. 4 and fig. 5, after the animals finish the specified test times (generally 30-50 times), the results of the last 20 times of experiments are counted, the accuracy rate is over 75%, and the animals are proved to be capable of accurately distinguishing the two tested odors; otherwise the animal proved unable to distinguish between the two odors.
As shown in fig. 1, fig. 2, fig. 3, fig. 4 and fig. 5, in the process of testing the animal, the animal is only required to be placed in the activity room, so that the animal is repeatedly tested by licking the water circuit, the push plate and the electric door, the animal has the capability of distinguishing the odor on the same day of the test, and the time required by the test is shortened.
As shown in fig. 1, fig. 2, fig. 3, fig. 4 and fig. 5, the time (t 4-t 3) from the animal entering the metal pad to the first time licking water is the time when the animal makes a judgment by smelling the odor, and the time can reflect the odor distinguishing time of the animal and is an important aspect of the olfactory resolving power.
As shown in figures 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, the time (t 3-t 2) from the animal entering the automatic door to the animal reaching the metal pad is the time when the animal passes through the moving corridor, the time can reflect the moving state (such as the moving speed and the like) of the animal, and is an important parameter reflecting whether the moving state of the animal is normal or not.
As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the micro-controller employs a chip (e.g., L293D, EP1K100QC208-3 or A4950) for analysis, control, timing and storage.
What has been described above are merely some embodiments of the present invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that at least one of the variations and modifications can be made without departing from the inventive concept herein, and it is intended to cover all such modifications and variations as fall within the scope of the invention.
