b.Stereotaxic Ear Bars: Choose a suitable ear bar according to the taper angle of the tip. The sharper the taper of the tip, the firmer the fixation, but the risk of damage to the animal’s ear is relatively high. Therefore, 45° or 60° ear bar is usually recommended for mouse, and 18° ear bar for rat. If you are doing research on hearing related directions, there are also hollow ear rods for you to choose from.
