Abstract
An apparatus to detect forelimb, hindlimb, and whole-body rat acoustic startle responses was constructed and tested. The apparatus included separate sensors for forelimbs and hindlimbs and a jointed animal holder. Limb responses were reasonably well isolated, allowing initial determination of their contributions to the whole-body response.
