Measurements of spontaneous motor activity using Animex equipment have been made throughout the incubation period in mice developing scrapie. A progressive fall in activity has been noted from an early stage in the disease process well before clinical signs of scrapie were evident. The initial fall was followed by an upsurge in activity at about the time when clinical signs of disease develop.
在患羊瘙痒症的小鼠整个潜伏期内，使用Animex设备对其自发运动活动进行了测量。早在羊瘙痒症临床症状出现之前的疾病进程早期，就已注意到活动量逐渐下降。最初的下降之后，在疾病临床症状出现时，活动量出现了激增。
