Simple insect specimen making method

Abstract

The invention provides a simple insect specimen making method. The method comprises the following steps of: S1, the early-stage preparation of an insect test tube specimen, S2, the calcination of theinsect test tube specimen; and S3, the maintenance and preservation of the insect test tube specimen. According to the method of the invention, an ordinary glass test tube is softened by using the high temperature of an alcohol blast burner; the test tube is tightened and closed by using a vice, and therefore, the test tube can be made with simplicity and easiness. The simple insect specimen making method has the advantages of simplicity and easiness in preparation and low cost. With the simple insect specimen making method adopted, the insect specimen can be obtained easily; the specimen is completely sealed, can be stored for a long time; the storage environment of the specimen is simple and has no special requirements; the specimen can be stored in a cool place at normal temperature; the management cost of the specimen is low; once made, the specimen can be completely preserved, has little possibility of being damaged, can be transferred conveniently; the making procedures of the specimen are simple and easy; and operation is convenient and easy to learn. The simple insect specimen making method is suitable for being popularized in enterprises and public institutions, universities and research institutes related to agriculture and forestry, and is more suitable for being used by grass-roots agriculture and forestry employees.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of experimental instruments, and in particular relates to a simple method for making insect specimens. Background technique [0002] The production of insect specimens has always been one of the important tasks of agricultural and forestry practitioners, especially universities or research institutes engaged in the study of insect taxonomy. At present, the conventional insect specimen preparation method is mostly the soaking method. [0003] The test tube specimen method is one of the immersion methods, that is, the test tube is filled with a physical specimen and a preservation solution, and then the test tube is sealed. The commonly used test tubes are mostly glass test tubes. The sealing method of the test tube is plug sealing or cap sealing, that is, the appropriate cotton plug, wooden stopper, rubber stopper or matching bottle cap is selected for sealing, and the sealing part is further sealed with adh...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The sealing method of the test tube is plug sealing or cap sealing, that is, the appropriate cotton plug, wooden stopper, rubber stopper or matching bottle cap is selected for sealing, and the sealing part is further sealed with adhesive such as silica gel. Although this method is convenient to operate, the specimen preservation The time is not long, the seal is easy to leak

In addition, some sealers are used for sealing, but the operation is complicated, the maintenance cost is expensive, and it is not easy to promote
