when the research objectives allow it, used non-lethal sampling techniques instead of lethal collecting, and used preferential collection of post reproductive individuals (or the life stage with the least reproductive value) when lethal collection is necessary to improve the chances of the species survival
N -Methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) is -amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) were blocked by 10 M (RS)-CPP (Tocris) and 10 M NBQX (Tocris), respectively
Decision framework for compromised peptides Definitely discard if: visible precipitation, significant color change, unusual odor, reconstituted solution left at room temperature more than 4 hours, or lyophilized peptide at warm temperature for more than 2 weeks
