C. elegans Chemical Response Assay

Description

Chemotaxis is the movement of cells or organisms in response to a chemical signal. In nature, it helps organisms find food and move away from harmful substances. It also matters at the cellular level. For example, sperm use chemotaxis to move toward an egg before fertilization.

In the lab, chemot...

Transcript

Il movimento di una cellula o di un organismo in risposta a uno stimolo chimico è un comportamento chiamato chemiotassi. In questo video, impareremo come eseguire un test di chemiotassi usando il nematode, C. elegans. Discuteremo anche di come i test di chemiotassi in C. elegans vengono applicati allo studio...
