Detection of toxic substances and radiation by means of a 'drosophila have any toxic meter'

摘要

The present invention relates to a detector system (10) for the detection of a substance (15) or a radiation. The detector system (10) has a vessel (17) for receiving a plurality of invertebrate animals (14) on. The detector system (10) has, in addition, a stimulation unit (11) for exciting the plurality of invertebrate animals (14), when the plurality of invertebrate animals (14) in the vessel (17) is located. A sensor unit (16) detects a movement of the plurality of invertebrate animals (14). A computing unit evaluates the of the sensor unit (16) detected movement data for the detection of the substance (15) or of the radiation or for determining a toxicity of the substance (15) or of the radiation from. The substance (15) or the radiation is in this case, the vessel (17) can be introduced in such a way that the plurality of invertebrate animals (14) of the substance (14) or is exposed to the radiation.
