Simultaneous monitoring of mouse grip strength, force profile, and cumulative force profile distinguishes muscle physiology following surgical, pharmacologic and diet interventions

Abstract Grip strength is a valuable preclinical assay to study muscle physiology in disease and aging by directly determining changes in muscle force generation in active laboratory mice. Existing methods to statistically evaluate grip strength, however, have limitations in the power and scope of t...
