Product Overview

This Y Maze is engineered specifically for behavioral testing in rodents, making it an essential tool for studying spatial memory, working memory, and spontaneous alternation. With its classic Y-shape and precise dimensions, it enables reproducible results across standard protocols in neuroscience, pharmacology, and behavioral psychology.

Crafted from high-quality, non-reflective black acrylic, the maze reduces glare for accurate video tracking and minimizes stress on animal subjects. The smooth, seamless finish allows for quick disinfection between trials, making it ideal for high-throughput environments.

Whether you’re running standard protocols or developing custom behavioral tests, this Y Maze is a reliable, long-term addition to any lab studying learning, memory, and decision-making in rodents.
