CAFE assay on H2O2 food (2% glucose, 0.3% propionic acid, 2% H2O2): volume (µL) of liquid food consumed in 24 h by a chamber of 10 mated females starved for 24 h before, computed by the authors as the drop of the liquid in the capillary (mm) x 0.4418 mm². Not corrected for evaporation (chambers without flies lost 1.8 µL on average with control food and 1.4 µL with H2O2 food in the same experiment). One value per chamber; values of different columns on the same row are not linked, except with CAFE_Alive_H2O2. [µL]
