Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: So far, how the animals evade the environmental nanomaterials is still largely unclear. In this study, we employed in vivo assay system of Caenorhabditis elegans to investigate the aversive behavior of nematodes to graphene oxide (GO) and the underlying neuronal basis. RESULTS: In this assay model, we detected the significant aversive behavior of nematodes to GO at concentrations more than 50 mg/L....
