Protocol for chronic auditory stimulation/stress in mice?

10 October 2017 1 9K Report

We are thinking a way to stress the auditory function of mice. We are discussing a daily stimulation with sounds. But we don't yet know about amplitudes and frecuencies to use, how much and how to use them. Would you point to some bibliography?

Have to admit that I tried this once, the only one who became seriously stressed was the researcher.
