Disclosed is an improved method for measuring the volume of an animal paw, suitable for use in a rat paw edema assay. Also disclosed is a novel apparatus for measuring the volume of liquid displaced by the insertion of an object into a liquid filled cup (1) which is on a cup holder basin (3), the liquid filled cup and cup holder basin being inside a rectangular support assembly (5), the measurement obtained by determining the buoyant force produced as a result of the displacement of the liquid by the animal paw.
L'invention concerne un procédé amélioré destiné à mesurer le volume de la patte d'un animal, pouvant être utilisé dans le dosage biologique d'un oedème d'une patte de rat. L'invention concerne également un nouvel appareil destiné à mesurer le volume d'un liquide déplacé par insertion d'un objet dans un conteneur (1) rempli de liquide, placé sur une bassine support de conteneur (3), le conteneur rempli de liquide et le support de conteneur se trouvant à l'intérieur d'un ensemble support rectangulaire (5), la mesure étant obtenue par détermination de la force de flottaison produite grâce au déplacement du liquide dans la patte de l'animal.
