Pond Assay for the Sensory Systems of <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>: A Novel Anesthesia-Free Method Enabling Detection of Responses to Extremely Low Chemical Concentrations

Chemotaxis in the nematode <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> has basically been examined using conventional assay methods. Although these can be problematic, for example, in their use of anesthesia, the method has never been improved. We propose a pond assay for the sensory systems (PASS) of...
