  1. Summary of results from open field test and fecal pellets/urine puddles (left in open field and Barnes maze) from two different mouse strains (C57BL/6J and hybrid B6129SF1/J). Results are presented as means. Differences between the strains were assessed with Student’s t-test and indicated in bold when significant (p ≤ 0.05)
