The neural transmission and modulation mechanisms of itch remain unclear. A series of neurobiological studies have focused on uncovering the neural circuits involved in itch regulation, and an indispensable component of these studies is the examination and analysis of itch-related behaviors in experimental animals.

Detailed Introduction

System Features

Objectively quantifies and evaluates scratching behavior.
Real-time analysis can significantly reduce analysis time and labor costs.
Utilizes a camera integrated with custom-developed image algorithms for high-precision measurement and analysis.
Thumbnail function facilitates intuitive follow-up analysis.
Stress-free environment for experimental animals (image analysis uses invisible near-infrared light).
No pre-treatment of animals is required (non-invasive).
Virtually no consumables are needed (we recommend using water-retaining gel based on the measurement duration).
Enables continuous recording and analysis of scratching behavior for up to 24 hours.
Optional input/output function is available for synchronous recording with third-party devices such as optogenetics and calcium imaging systems.
Scratching behavior recognition accuracy is as high as over 92%.
