Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect of social isolation on behavioral characterization of C57BL / 6 mice. Method Sixty 2-month-old C57BL / 6 mice were randomly divided into control group and social isolation group, with 30 mice in each group, half male and half female. Mice in the control group were every 5 / cage, and mice in the social isolation group were every 1 / cage. After 8 weeks, nest building experiment, water maze experiment and open field experiment were carried out. Result Compared with the control group, the score of mice in the social isolation group was significantly lower in the nesting experiment (P<0. 05) . The times of crossing the platform, the times of entering the target quadrant, the percentage of residence time in the target quadrant and the percentage of swimming distance in the target quadrant in the social isolation group were significantly lower in the water maze experiment ( P < 0. 05 ) . The total times of crossing, the total moving distance and the average moving speed increased significantly, and the resting time decreased significantly ( P < 0. 05 ) in the open field experiment. Conclusion The executive ability of daily activities and learning and memory ability of C57BL / 6 mice decreased, and the ability of autonomous movement and inquiry behavior increased after 8 weeks of social isolation.
