Abstract
Similar to the rat, the mouse median nerve model is superior to sciatic nerve model for the minimal impact on animal well-being and the effectiveness of the grasping test for motor function evaluation. The main limitation is the small nerve size which requires advanced microsurgical skills for performing 12/0 epineurial suturing.
