Study of in vivo toxicity of selected compounds with the implementation of the invertebrate model Galleria mellonella
Turinová, Veronika ; Konečná, Klára (advisor) ; Janďourek, Ondřej (referee)
6 ABSTRACT Charles university, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Biological and Medical Sciences Study program: Pharmacy Author: Veronika Záveská Supervisor: RNDr. Klára Konečná, Ph.D. Title of thesis: Study of in vivo toxicity of selected compounds with the implementation of the invertebrate model Galleria mellonella Background: The aim of this diploma thesis was to monitor the influence of the weight of the larvae, or rather its developmental stage, on the results after the administration of selected doses of DMSO. In the experimental work, the toxic impact of DMSO on larvae was evaluated not only from the point of view of mortality. Much attention was also paid to the characteristic features that are commonly observed during tests on Galleria mellonella larvae, such as the degree of melanization, the impact on activity and cocoon formation. Methods: For individual experiments, three test groups of six individuals each were created based on weight, one group of larvae weighing 250 ± 10 mg, the second group weighing 350 ± 15 mg and the third group weighing 450 ± 15 mg. Using a Hamilton syringe, a volume of 10 µl of the test solution with the appropriate concentration of DMSO was administered to each larva directly into the haemocoel through the last left proleg. The administered doses...
