Studying the Effect of Pesticides on <em>Caenorhabditis elegans</em> Neurons

Source: Susman, K. M. R. Examining the Effect of Pesticides on Caenorhabditis elegans Neurons. J. Vis. Exp. (2022). This video demonstrates evaluating the neurodegenerative effects of a test chemical on Caenorhabditis elegans with fluorescently tagged neurons. Normal neurons show bright fluorescence of intact soma and processes, while diminished fluorescence, swollen soma, and punctuated processes indicate neurodegeneration.

This video demonstrates evaluating the neurodegenerative effects of a test chemical on Caenorhabditis elegans with fluorescently tagged neurons. Normal neurons show bright fluorescence of intact soma and processes, while diminished fluorescence, swollen soma, and punctuated processes indicate neurodegeneration.
