Understanding how physiological culture conditions affect microbial communities and diversity and their metabolic capacity will contribute important knowledge of their impact on health and diseases. Here, we present a protocol adapted from the template published by Auchtung et al. to create mini-bioreactor arrays that can cultivate complex fecal communities, define bacterial consortiums or single strains under precise conditions, including nutrient availability, temperature, flow rate, pH, and oxygen content. We describe the process for building the mini-bioreactor system, including adaptations to improve limitations in the published protocol. We also discuss the setup of the mini-bioreactor system under anaerobic conditions with the use of MEGA media (adapted from Han et al.), which is a rich media supporting the growth of diverse bacteria. We describe the inoculation of gut humanized mouse fecal samples into the mini-bioreactor system, followed by the establishment of complex community cultures within the mini-bioreactor system, which can be grown under continuous flow with aseptic sampling to monitor community composition. This system is adaptable to dietary changes and other cultural modifications. The techniques described here allow for the characterization of diverse, fastidious fecal communities under dynamic conditions or in response to perturbation in isolation from host-derived factors.</p>","PeriodicalId":48787,"journal":{"name":"Jove-Journal of Visualized Experiments","volume":" 218","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144027366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Determining drainage flow rates requires monitoring the head in a drainage control structure and applying an appropriate equation for the weir installed in the structure. Previous studies that developed calibrated equations for weirs in control structures have produced different equations (i.e., different weir flow equation coefficients) for the same type of weir and control structure size. This study describes procedures for setting up experimental water flow rate and head measurements within a drainage control structure and developing a weir equation for flows contained within a V-notch weir. Additionally, the procedure for obtaining a weir equation for overtopping flows -- when the water level exceeds the top of the V-notch weir -- is outlined. This process involves using the weir equation developed in the laboratory for a V-notch weir and an online tool, the \"Weir Flow Equation Coefficients Calculator\", developed by the authors. The online tool can also generate weir flow equation coefficients for both V-notch-contained and overtopping flows across various sizes of Agri Drain water control structures, even when users lack site-specific flow rate vs. head relationship.</p>","PeriodicalId":48787,"journal":{"name":"Jove-Journal of Visualized Experiments","volume":" 218","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144055398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to other exercise paradigms that require aversive stimulus to induce active movement, wheel running is voluntary. VWR generally consists of placing a running wheel inside the mouse home cage. However, analyzing exercise parameters can typically only be conducted when mice are individually housed, while overall cage effects can be reported when mice are group-housed. Therefore, the current models force experimenters to choose between measuring individual exercise parameters in single-housed mice or measuring group effects in group-housed mice; depending on the research question and model, this could be limiting. Therefore, the goal of this method is to demonstrate a protocol that assesses VWR in a mouse model by quantifying running parameters in individual mice, with minimal isolation. We report on device design, preoperative preparations, and experiment setup. Results of a 6-week training protocol using this VWR model suggest it provides sufficient stimulus to increase spatial object recognition memory, comparable to the clinical effect of exercise. This simple and inexpensive model facilitates investigation into the effect of VWR on multiple measurements of wheel activity, minimizing factors that could limit or affect experimental outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":48787,"journal":{"name":"Jove-Journal of Visualized Experiments","volume":" 218","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144033876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study presents a novel, anesthesia-free technique for measuring heartbeat in freely moving zebrafish larvae, addressing a critical limitation in cardiovascular research. The proposed approach integrates shortwave-infrared imaging with machine-learning-based heart tracking, allowing for precise and continuous cardiac activity monitoring in non-immobilized specimens. A convolutional neural network was trained to detect the heart region, and a photoplethysmographic signal was extracted from image sequences to determine heart rate. Experimental validation demonstrated the method's reliability and consistency across multiple test conditions. A key benefit of the methodology is its ability to preserve the natural physiological state of zebrafish, minimizing stress-induced artifacts.
