许多小型开放海洋动物,如南极磷虾,是海洋生态系统的重要组成部分。为了发现像磷虾这样的动物在变化的海洋中会发生什么,实验在水族箱里进行,在那里可以控制条件来模拟预测未来会发生的水特征。单个动物对变化的水条件的反应很难观察,而且用目前的观察技术很难跟踪单个动物一生的进展。光学相干断层扫描(OCT)是一种光学成像技术,可以从生物标本内部几毫米的深度获得高分辨率的图像。它与体内成像兼容,可以在同一标本上重复使用。在这项工作中,我们展示了OCT如何应用于死后磷虾样本,以及如何获得重要的生理数据,如壳厚度和器官体积的估计。使用OCT,我们发现磷虾外骨骼厚度的平均值为(30±4)μ m,沿着动物身体的1厘米长度。我们还表明,该技术可用于提供足类关节内部结构的详细图像,并提供心脏体积(0.73±0.03)mm3的估计。
Many small open ocean animals, such as Antarctic krill, are an important part of marine ecosystems. To discover what will happen to animals such as krill in a changing ocean, experiments are run in aquaria where conditions can be controlled to simulate water characteristics predicted to occur in the future. The response of individual animals to changing water conditions can be hard to observe, and with current observation techniques it is very difficult to follow the progress of an individual animal through its life. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an optical imaging technique that allows images at high resolution to be obtained from depths up to a few millimeters inside biological specimens. It is compatible with in vivo imaging and can be used repeatedly on the same specimens. In this work, we show how OCT may be applied to post mortem krill samples and how important physiological data such as shell thickness and estimates of organ volume can be obtained. Using OCT we find an average value for the thickness of krill exoskeleton to be (30±4) µm along a 1 cm length of the animal body. We also show that the technique may be used to provide detailed imagery of the internal structure of a pleopod joint and provide an estimate for the heart volume of (0.73±0.03) mm3.
