The optokinetic drum has become an appropriate tool to examine visual properties of mice. We performed baseline measurements using mice of the inbred strains C3H, C57BL/6, BALB/c, JF1, 129 and DBA/2 at the age of 8-15 weeks. Each individual C57BL/6, 129 and JF1 mouse was reliably identified as non-affected in vision by determining head-tracking responses. C3H mice were used as negative control because of their...
