本文介绍了一种微流控装置的制造,用于在单独的腔室中液体培养许多单独的蠕虫(秀丽隐杆线虫)。每个房间都有一个从第四个幼虫阶段到死亡的蠕虫,并能够检查整个成年期的蠕虫种群。在腔室附近,该装置包括微流体蠕虫夹,其能够定期地暂时固定每个蠕虫。该设备使得跟踪个体蠕虫在其整个生命周期中的身体大小和运动变化成为可能。这种在设备内进行纵向测量的能力使得能够识别与C寿命相关的年龄相关的表型变化。优美的
This article describes the fabrication of a microfluidic device for the liquid culture of many individual nematode worms (Caenorhabditis elegans) in separate chambers. Each chamber houses a single worm from the fourth larval stage until death, and enables examination of a population of individual worms for their entire adult lifespans. Adjacent to the chambers, the device includes microfluidic worm clamps, which enable periodic, temporary immobilization of each worm. The device made it possible to track changes in body size and locomotion in individual worms throughout their lifespans. This ability to perform longitudinal measurements within the device enabled the identification of age-related phenotypic changes that correlate with lifespan in C. elegans.
