An inexpensive rotary infusion pump for delivering microliter volumes of fluids to animal subjects.
The study of chemosensory responsiveness in developing animals often involves experimental designs in which fluid stimuli are infused into the mouth of the subject. In this report we describe an inexpensive alternative to commercially available syringe pumps for automatically delivering intraoral infusions on a programmed schedule.
