Product Info The Elevated Zero Maze is an elevated ring-shaped runway with the same amount of area devoted to adjacent open and closed quadrants, with increasing usage in recent years. It is very similar to the elevated plus maze, but with the center region of the elevated plus maze removed. It has been pharmacologically validated with various anxiolytic drugs. The design is created with an elevated circular platform with two walled, enclosed portions as well as two open portions, allowing for clear interpretations of murine behavior. Because mice tend to avoid open spaced areas, the animals will preferentially spend more time in the enclosed walled area.
