- We got drosophila melanogaster(oregon-rs) in 3 tubes from [http://gcoe.biol.sci.kyoto-u.ac.jp/gcoe/eng/member/2008/07/fuse_naoyuki.php Mr. Fuse].
- We made [http://www.biol.se.tmu.ac.jp/fly/www/standard-medium.html standard medium of Tokyo Metropolitan Univ. for drosophila].
[http://www.biol.se.tmu.ac.jp/fly/www/standard-medium.html Standard medium of Tokyo Metropolitan Univ. for drosophila] Materials Methods - water 500mL
- dry yeast 20g
- corn flour 45g
- glucose 50g
- agarose 3.5g
- propionic acid 1.5mL
- Stir dry yeast and agarose with about two-thirds of water. Then, autoclave it.
- Stir corn flour and glucose with the remaining water.
- Stir 1 and 2, then autoclave it again.
- after autoclave, add propionic acid into it.■
- We dispensed the standard-medium into 3 bottles.
- Kusaba made a convenient tube for taking flies.

- When we move flies to bottle No.4, we sadly found most of they drown. Then we wipe off the water drops inside the bottles and use dry heat sterilizer to dry them. The problem is solved and we dispense flies to No.5 and No.6, from No.4 and No.2 respectively.
- An extra 0.3g agarose is added into the 100ml standard-medium to make the solid-medium. We clean the bottle No.4 and dispense the solid-medium into it and labeled No.7.
- We practiced ice anesthesia.
Aug 6th, 2011
- After drying lightly the bottle No.7, we move the flies from No.3 into it.
Aug 7th, 2011
- We dispensed standard-medium to six bottles and solid-medium to another two bottles.
Aug 8th, 2011
- Not enough flies to dispense.
- The experimental plan was made.
Aug 9th, 2011
- Move part of the flies from No.6 to No.8(standard-medium).
- Supplement the standard-medium in No.1~3.
