Technique for BC stimulation in mice: A metal screw is threaded into the mouse skull near the vertex and additionally supported with dental acrylic. The flat-head of the screw is tightly coupled to the vibrator-driven accelerometer by cyanoacrylic glue. The TM, malleus and incus of the non-test ear are removed. ABRs are differentially recorded with the positive electrode placed in the vertex (+) and the negative electrode (−) placed behind the test ear. A ground electrode is placed near the tail.
