An automatic device for delivering “tail-pinch” stimulation to freely moving rats

An automatic device useful in the study of tail-pinch induced eating is described. The apparatus can apply pressure of controlled duration and intensity to the tail of freely moving rats. With this method, eating can be induced reliably without any vocalization.
