Description

Standardized measurement of individual larval dry mass using precision microbalance after oven-drying at controlled temperature. Applied to assess growth and biomass responses to experimental treatments.

Typical Equipment

  • Cahn C-31 microbalance
  • oven

Output Measurements

  • individual dry mass
