Odor-cued taste avoidance: a simple and robust test of mouse olfaction.
In odor-cued taste avoidance (OCTA), thirsty mice, offered either an odorized nonaversive fluid (S+) or an odorized aversive fluid (S-), quickly learn to use odor to avoid drinking the S-. Acquisition of both odor detection and odor discrimination tasks is very rapid with learning evidenced in most cases by either long response times or total avoidance on the second presentation of the S- stimu...
متن کاملWhen Animal Housing and Strain Difference Matter: Cellular and Behavioral Studies in Mouse Olfaction
In olfaction, the olfactory sensory neuron (OSN) is the point where chemical environment activates an electrochemical signaling that will result in odor perception. The OSNs in the main olfactory epithelium are part of a four part olfactory system that provides chemical sensory information, and can alter behavior through odor recognition, pheromone detection, and memory retrieval. H...
متن کاملBehavioral assessment of the aging mouse vestibular system.
Age related decline in balance performance is associated with deteriorating muscle strength, motor coordination and vestibular function. While a number of studies show changes in balance phenotype with age in rodents, very few isolate the vestibular contribution to balance under either normal conditions or during senescence. We use two standard behavioral tests to characterize the balance perfo...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
A high-throughput behavioral paradigm for Drosophila olfaction - The Flywalk
How can odor-guided behavior of numerous individual Drosophila be assessed automatically with high temporal resolution? For this purpose we introduce the automatic integrated tracking and odor-delivery system Flywalk. In fifteen aligned small wind tunnels individual flies are exposed to repeated odor pulses, well defined in concentration and timing. The flies’ positions are visually tracked, wh...
