Her præsenterer vi en metode til at måle organismal kolesterolniveauet i tredje stadie (L3) larvestadiet af Drosophila melanogaster. Denne metode udnytter den forholdsvis lave tæthed af fedtvæv at skelne mellem larver med ændrede fedtdepoter. Opdrift-baseret analyse er et værdifuldt redskab til hurtig, reproducerbar, og økonomisk screening.
