Note on Infra-red Lamp for Drying Inflated Larvae
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Extract
The following technique employed at the Vernon Laboratory greatly facilitates the preparation of inflated larval specimens. Inflated larvae are dried over a reflector infra-red heat lamp (250 watts), clamped to a titration stand. The standard heat lamp with an aluminum reflector, and the red bowl heat lamp with a nickel reflector have been tested; the latter is preferable because it radiates more heat with reduced glare.
