Authors: Pringle Lab, Christian Renicke
Group: Aiptasia-Symbiodiniaceae Model System
Summary: This protocol describes how to use agarose with a low gelling point (27-30°C; often called low-melting agarose) to immobilize Aiptasia larvae for microscopy.Larvae stay alive and in one place for prolonged periods of several hours but continue to mainly spin around the longitudal axis. After imaging, larvae can easily be retrieved from the agarose and transferred back to artificial sea water.
