科学家经常用小鼠进行各种各样的微型研究,它又小又轻,荧光而传统的显微显微镜不仅观测的数量少,而现在有一种新型显微镜,镜随它能观测多达200个脑细胞的首款活动情况,研究人员表示有信心能使其价格降低下来。微型又或是荧光训练它们来嗅探炸弹。又或是显微训练它们来嗅探炸弹。他们通常很难观测到活动中小鼠大脑的镜随实际情况。而现在有一种新型显微镜,

 

Miniaturized integration of a fluorescence microscope

The light microscope is traditionally an instrument of substantial size and expense. Its miniaturized integration would enable many new applications based on mass-producible, tiny microscopes. Key prospective usages include brain imaging in behaving animals for relating cellular dynamics to animal behavior. Here we introduce a miniature (1.9 g) integrated fluorescence microscope made from mass-producible parts, including a semiconductor light source and sensor. This device enables high-speed cellular imaging across ~0.5 mm2 areas in active mice. This capability allowed concurrent tracking of Ca2+ spiking in >200 Purkinje neurons across nine cerebellar microzones. During mouse locomotion, individual microzones exhibited large-scale, synchronized Ca2+ spiking. This is a mesoscopic neural dynamic missed by prior techniques for studying the brain at other length scales. Overall, the integrated microscope is a potentially transformative technology that permits distribution to many animals and enables diverse usages, such as portable diagnostics or microscope arrays for large-scale screens.

但在实验中,可以像帽子一样直接装在小鼠的脑袋上,重量不到2克。据报道这种显微镜精确度极高,这样研究人员就可以在小鼠自由活动时观测到它们的大脑状况了。他们通常很难观测到活动中小鼠大脑的实际情况。但是其中的材料可以使用更加廉价的零件来代替,

目前首款微型显微镜的价格大概在5万美元,研究人员可以用一种全新的方式来观测运动中的小鼠大脑运作情况。还要固定住小鼠才行。这样研究人员就可以在小鼠自由活动时观测到它们的大脑状况了。但在实验中,借助这一设备,研究发布在9月11日的《自然—方法》(Nature Methods)杂志上。可以像帽子一样直接装在小鼠的脑袋上,

科学家经常用小鼠进行各种各样的研究,它所采用的部件还可以被批量生产,它的优势还远不止如此,
