摘要

在越来越多的毛皮光致发光研究中,博物馆标本已被用作活体或新鲜动物的方便替代品。尽管化学保存对标本的影响已经被注意到,但它们还没有经过实验测试。我用了一系列实验来回答固定和湿保存,或者晒黑,是否会改变博物馆标本中毛皮光致发光的表达。北方棕色大鼠异齿龙皮毛的光致发光在最初的固定中幸存下来,但大鼠和实验室大鼠褐家鼠皮毛的光发光因长期保存在乙醇中而受到严重影响。化学鞣制和明矾鞣制都消除了大鼠毛皮的蓝白色光致发光,但没有消除土匪毛皮的粉红色光致发光。这些小规模测试的结果表明,使用湿保存标本进行的博物馆研究可能低估了活体动物的自然光致发光。

Loss of photoluminescence in wet-preserved rat and bandicoot specimens
Museum specimens have been used as a convenient alternative to live or fresh animals in an increasing number of studies on fur photoluminescence. Although effects of chemical preservation on specimens have been noted, they have not been experimentally tested. I used a series of experiments to answer whether fixation and wet preservation, or tanning, alters the expression of fur photoluminescence in museum specimens. The photoluminescence of northern brown bandicoot, Isoodon macrourus, fur survived initial fixation, but the photoluminescence of both bandicoot and laboratory rat, Rattus norvegicus, fur was severely compromised by longer-term preservation in ethanol. Both chemical and alum tanning eliminated the blue-white photoluminescence of rat fur, but not the pink photoluminescence of bandicoot fur. The results of these small-scale tests indicate that museum-based studies using wet-preserved specimens are likely to be an underestimate of natural photoluminescence in live animals.

期刊介绍: The Royal Zoological Society publishes a fully refereed scientific journal, Australian Zoologist, specialising in topics relevant to Australian zoology. The Australian Zoologist was first published by the Society in 1914, making it the oldest Australian journal specialising in zoological topics. The scope of the journal has increased substantially in the last 20 years, and it now attracts papers on a wide variety of zoological, ecological and environmentally related topics. The RZS also publishes, as books, and the outcome of forums, which are run annually by the Society.
