Abstract
Cylinder behavioral test for left and right forepaw use in mice

Steps
1.
First allow mice to habituate to the experimental room for at least 1 h before each test
2.
Put animals individually in a glass cylinder and the total number of left and right forepaw touches performed within 5 min was counted
3.
Clean behavioral equipment with 70% ethanol after each animal has been tested to avoid olfactory cues
