Grip strength test. Shown is the custom-made grip strength apparatus, coupled with a negative measuring scale. The white bar is designed to allow only the fingers to encompass the narrow grip-gap. Once the grip reflex is induced, the experimenter pulls the rat in a steady and reproducible upward motion, whilst the apparatus-coupled scale measures the maximum grip strength.
