Light Spot Assay: En metode for å undersøke drosophila fototaktisk oppførsel

Abstract

Kilde: Sun, Y., et al. Light Spot-Based Assay for Analyse av Drosophila Larval Phototaxis. J. Vis. Utt. (2019).

Drosophila larver er lysfølsomme og reagerer på endringer i omkringliggende lys. Denne videoen beskriver en analyse som tester deres evne til å unngå lys, kalt lyspunktanalysen. Den omtalte protokollen demonstrerer hvordan du setter opp analysen med en blått lys LED og viser hvordan du registrerer dyrets oppførsel som svar på lysmøtet.

Protocol

Denne protokollteksten er et utdrag fra Sun et al., Light Spot-Based Assay for Analysis of Drosophila Larval Phototaxis, J. Vis. Exp. (2019). 1. Oppsett av bildesystemet Klem et høyoppløselig webkamera med en jernklips, ca. 10 cm over lyspunktet på skrivebordet (figur 1). Juster retningen på kameralinsen mot skrivebordet. Koble kameraet til en datamaskin via et USB-grensesnitt. Plasser en agarplate på …

Representative Results

Figur 1: Eksperimentelt oppsett. (A) Skjematisk representasjon av oppsettet for den lette spotbaserte larval raske fototaxis-analysen. De blå linjene representerer banene til synlig lys som brukes som visuell stimulering, og de røde linjene representerer banene til infrarødt lys. Pilene angir retningen på lyset. 850 nm båndpassfilteret gjør at infrarødt lys kan passere, men det blokkerer synlig lys…
