Embodiment 1

[0019] This embodiment adopts as figure 1 The device shown to realize the present invention, figure 1 The shown device includes a base 1, a V-shaped crowbar 2, a stepper motor 3, a rotating arm 4, a container 5 for containing fruit flies, a lifting platform 6, a height control pad 7, and a controller 8. Wherein, the V-shaped crowbar 2 is installed on the base 1, and one end of the V-shaped crowbar 2 is equipped with a lifting platform 6, and there is a container 5 for containing fruit flies on the lifting platform, and there is also a height control pad 7 under the lifting platform 6, The other end of the V-shaped crowbar 2 has a stepping motor 3, and the stepping motor 3 has a rotating arm 4. The stepping motor 3 controls the rotation of the rotating arm 4. When the rotating arm 4 rotates to the low end position, the top of the rotating arm 4 and the V-shaped The other end of the crowbar 2 contacts, so that the other end of the V-shaped crowbar 2 moves downward, and the cont...

Abstract

The invention relates to an animal motion measurement method, in particular to a method for measuring motion ability of fruit flies. The technical scheme of the invention comprises the following steps that: (1) the fruit flies are put in a container; (2) the container in which the fruit flies are put does up-and-down movement according to a certain frequency, so that the container is lifted to a certain height, and then, the container does downward movement of a freely-falling body; (3) the container is marked with height scales; and (4) the container does the up-and-down movement with a certain frequency, then after some time, the number of the fruit flies at different height stages is recorded. By adopting the method of the invention, the fruit flies can move according to own inverse gravity climbing characteristic through the up-and-to movement, the movement time and the frequency are controllable, the operation is simple, the observation is intuitive, and a molecular mechanism related to aging can be researched fast and conveniently at a large scale.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for establishing an animal anti-aging exercise model, in particular to a method for measuring the exercise ability of fruit flies. Background technique [0002] Out of concern for the aging of human beings, the study of aging has become a hot field of life science research. As an effective anti-aging approach, the study of exercise anti-aging and its mechanism of action has a very attractive prospect. Because many experimental conditions and exercise effects are not suitable for direct implementation on the human body, researchers often need to use some experimental animals to explore the mechanism of exercise and aging by constructing animal anti-aging models. Among them, rodents (rats and mice), which are close to human relatives, have become the most commonly used experimental subjects in sports training. However, with the continuous development of molecular biology and the deepening of the field of aging research...
