[13p-A407-3] Vigorous flagellar beating in Chlamydomonas axonemes at high-pressure

Keywords:High-pressure microscopy, Flagellar beating

We have developed a high-pressure microscope to monitor biological samples in real time. It was optimized both for the best image formation and for the stability to hydrostatic pressure up to 150 MPa. We successfully demonstrate that high hydrostatic pressure induces vigorous flagellar beating in Chlamydomonasparalyzed-flagellamutants.
