ATR preparation

flies need ATR supplemented in their diet in order for optogenetic tools to function properly.

for most updated protocol, refer to this google doc

here is a quick reference for making 10mM stock solution from 100mg of powder using 95% ethanol:

equation to calculate volume of 95% ethanol needed to make solution

$100mg\ast \frac{1g}{1000mg}\ast \frac{1L}{10mmol}\ast \frac{1000mmol}{1mol}\ast \frac{1mol}{284.44g}\ast \frac{1000mL}{1L}=35.2mL$
