A video method to study Drosophila sleep.

Sleep - 1 Nov 2008

Zimmerman John E, Raizen David M, Maycock Matthew H, Maislin Greg, Pack Allan I

Abstract excerpt

STUDY OBJECTIVES: To use video to determine the accuracy of the infrared beam-splitting method for measuring sleep in Drosophila and to determine the effect of time of day, sex, genotype, and age on sleep measurements. DESIGN: A digital image analysis method based on frame subtraction principle was developed to distinguish a quiescent from a moving fly. Data obtained using this method were compared with data...
