Hotplate test
Objective: To evaluate nociceptive sensitivity in mice
This is a Hotplate test protocol using mice as the model organism. The procedure involves 4 procedural steps, 1 equipment items, 1 materials. Extracted from a 2026 paper published in IBRO Neurosci Rep.

Study window
Estimated timing pending
Core workflow
Place mouse on heated plate • Record latency to first paw response • Apply safety cut-off

Use this page as an execution guide, then fall back to the source paper whenever you need exact exclusions, dosing details, or assay-specific caveats.
Confirm first
- Verify the animal model, intervention setup, and collection timepoints against the source paper.
- Check that every direct vendor link matches the exact specification your lab plans to run.
Use the page like this
- Work through the protocol steps in order and use the inline vendor chips only when you need to source or verify an item.
- Jump to Experimental Context for readouts, data shape, and analysis flow before planning downstream analysis.

Place mouse on heated plate
Place the mouse on a heated plate maintained at 55.0 ± 0.3 °C

“Mice were placed on a heated plate maintained at 55.0 ± 0.3 °C”
Record latency to first paw response
Record the time until the first paw response (hind paw licking, shaking, or trembling) occurs
View evidence from paper
“the latency to the first paw response (e.g., hind paw licking, shaking, or trembling) was recorded”
Apply safety cut-off
Use a maximum cut-off time of 30 seconds to prevent tissue damage
View evidence from paper
“To prevent tissue damage, a cut-off time of 30 s was applied”
Single test per mouse
Test each mouse only once and use the recorded latency for analysis
View evidence from paper
“Each mouse was tested once, and the latency was used for analysis”
