| Setting | Value | Paper’s words |
|---|---|---|
| Arena size |
| “A circular open‐field arena was constructed in house with diameter 36 cm” |
| Session duration |
| “Their activity was recorded for 2 min followed by 2 min of illumination of the chamber” “tracked for 2 min in the dark and for 2 min after light was switched on” |
| Illumination |
| “The irradiance of the open field upon LED illumination was ~10^15 photons cm^−2 s^−1” |
| Other settings in the paper | ||
| Dark adapted | 30 min | “blind rd1 control mice were dark adapted for 30 min before being placed in the center” |
| Placed | in the center | “blind rd1 control mice were dark adapted for 30 min before being placed in the center” |
| LED light sources | 590‐nm | “Ten 590‐nm LED light sources” |
| 590‐nm LED light sources | Ten | “Ten 590‐nm LED light sources” |
| Video camera | night vision mode | “Activity in the arena was recorded during the test by a video camera (Handycam, Sony Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) in night vision mode” |
| Run during the dark phase of the mice | between 18 and 21 h | “All behavior experiments were run during the dark phase of the mice between 18 and 21 h” |
| Apparatus | ||
| Circular open‐field arena | “A circular open‐field arena was constructed in house with diameter 36 cm using an aluminum sheet folded in a circle placed over a plexiglass base (similar to the one described in Polosukhina et al, 2012).” | |
| 590‐nm LED light sources | Lumitronix, Graefelfing, Germany, Cree XP‐E | “Ten 590‐nm LED light sources (Cree XP‐E, Lumitronix, Graefelfing, Germany) were glued to the wall of the open‐field arena.” |
| Handheld spectrophotometer | Thorlabs, Germany, PM100D | “as measured approximately at the level of the mice's eyes using a handheld spectrophotometer (PM100D, Thorlabs, Germany)” |
| Video camera | Sony Corporation, Tokyo, Japan, Handycam | “Activity in the arena was recorded during the test by a video camera (Handycam, Sony Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) in night vision mode.” |
| Ethovision XT | Noldus Information Technology, Leesburg, VA | “The movies were analyzed using mouse behavior phenotyping and motion tracking software Ethovision XT build 8.0 (Noldus Information Technology, Leesburg, VA).” |
