在过夜测试中，紫外光被用来检查成年雄性家鼠在笼子地板上的滤纸上沉积的尿痕。尿频和尿液沉积在滤纸上的方式都取决于社会地位。占主导地位的雄性在它们整个笼子的地板上做了强有力的标记，而从属的雄性通常只在笼子角落的两到四个池子里排尿。
Ultraviolet light has been used to examine urine marks deposited by adult male house mice on filter paper on the floors of their cages during overnight tests. Both the urination frequency and the pattern in which urine was deposited on the filter paper depended upon social rank. Dominant males vigorously marked their entire cage floor, whereas subordinate males typically voided urine in only two to four pools in the corners of their cages.
