[Development of the device for Japanese quail nestlings maintenance in microgravity].
Postembryonic development of the nestlings in microgravity has revealed their capacity for orientation and stabilization of their position in space which called for developing the special devices. Under terrestrial laboratory conditions the facility for maintaining the nestlings aged up to 10 days has been developed and tested. The results of tests have indicated that despite the restricted volume of individual cages the nestlings can grow without significant variations from the norm as evidenced by the dynamics of nestlings body mass during 10 days and the amount of consumed food.
