Microfluidic Device to Measure the Speed of C. elegans Using the Resistance Change of the Flexible Electrode
This work presents a novel method to assess the condition of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) through a resistance measurement of its undulatory locomotion speed inside a micro channel. As the worm moves over the electrode inside the micro channel, the length of the electrode changes, consequentl...
