Microfluidic Platform for Analyzing the Thermotaxis of C. elegans in a Linear Temperature Gradient.

Abstract excerpt

Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans), which shares a considerable amount of characteristics with human genes is one of the important model organisms for the study of behavioral responses. Thermotaxis is a representative behavior response of C. elegans; C. elegans stores the cultivation temperature in thermosensory neurons and moves to the cultivation temperature region in a temperature variation. In this study, we...
