This article describes the fabrication of a microfluidic device for the liquid culture of many
individual nematode worms (Caenorhabditis elegans) in separate chambers. Each chamber …

This paper describes the fabrication of a microfluidic device for rapid immobilization of large
numbers of live C. elegans for performing morphological analysis, microsurgery, and …

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is an important model organism in genetic research
and drug screening because of its relative simplicity, ease of maintenance, amenability to …

The nematode C. elegans (worm) is a small invertebrate animal widely used in studies
related to fundamental biological processes, disease modelling, and drug discovery. Due to …

This paper describes a new microfluidic platform for screening drugs and their dose
response on the locomotion behavior of free living nematodes and parasitic nematodes. The …

In this study, we report a microfluidic device for the whole-life culture of the nematode
Caenorhabditis elegans that allows the scoring of animal survival and health measures. This …

In a typical high-throughput drug screening (HTS) process, up to millions of chemical
compounds are applied to cells cultured in well plates, aiming to find molecules that exhibit …

We present two microfluidic approaches for immobilizing the roundworm C. elegans on-chip.
The first approach creates a CO2 micro-environment while the second one utilizes a …

The roundworm C. elegans is a mainstay of aging research due to its short lifespan and
easily manipulable genetics. Current, widely used methods for long-term measurement of C …

Microfluidics has emerged as a set of powerful tools that have greatly advanced some areas
of biological research, including research using C. elegans. The use of microfluidics has …
