Characterising phagocytes and measuring phagocytosis from live <i>Galleria mellonella</i> larvae

2023-10-09

Abstract excerpt

Over the last 20 years, the larva of the greater waxmoth, Galleria mellonella , has rapidly increased in popularity as an in vivo mammalian replacement model organism for the study of human pathogens. Despite this, experimental readouts of response to infection are generally limited to observing the melanisation cascade – where the organism turns black as part of the systemic immune response – and quantifying la...
