Abstract

Behavioral testing methods are described for determining whether female mice can discriminate between volatile urinary pheromones of conspecifics of the same vs. opposite sex and/or in different endocrine conditions, for determining sexual partner preference, for quantifying receptive (lordosis) behavior, and for monitoring the expression of male-typical mounting behavior in female mice.

摘要

描述了行为测试方法，用于确定雌性小鼠是否能够区分同性与异性同种个体挥发性尿液信息素之间的差异和/或处于不同内分泌状态下的差异，用于确定性伴侣偏好，用于量化接受性（脊柱前凸）行为，以及用于监测雌性小鼠中雄性典型骑跨行为的表现。
