In this study initial data were generated to develop laboratory control charts for aquatic
toxicity testing using the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Tests were performed using two …

Caenorhabditis elegans aquatic toxicity assays were standardized with five common
reference toxicants: CdC12, NaC1, KC1, sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), and sodium …

A ring test was carried out within the standardization process of ISO 10872 to evaluate the
precision of the toxicity test for the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Eight different …

A promising aquatic toxicity test has been developed using a species of free‐living
nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans. The testing was performed with soluble forms of Ag, Hg …

This study used a randomized block design to investigate the importance of several
variables in using the free‐living soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans for aquatic toxicity …

Caenorhabditis elegans is a small nematode that can be maintained at low cost and
handled using standard in vitro techniques. Unlike toxicity testing using cell cultures, C …

The US National Toxicology Program, the US Environmental Protection Agency, and other
national and international agencies are committing significant resources towards the …

Caenorhabditis elegans is a free-living soil nematode that is commonly used as a biological
model. Recently, much work has been done using the nematode as a toxicological model as …

The utility of any non-rodent model system for chemical toxicity screening depends on the
level of correlation between its responses and toxic reactions in rodents. Toxicity assays in …

The toxicity of many chemicals depends on the physical conditions of the test environment,
and any change or adjustment made to the tests can alter the results. Therefore it is …
