Transport, Localization and Separation of Caenorhabditis Elegans Using Electrotaxis for Movement Based Behavioral Assays in Drug Discovery
Electric field-induced locomotion and transport of worms Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) in a microfluidic device (electrotaxis) is demonstrated in this paper. Direct (DC) and alternating (AC) electric fields inside a microchannel were used to stimulate worms locomotion towards the negative pole and to halt their locomotion while localizing them at desired locations in the channel respectiv...
متن کاملThick Film Deposition of Carbon Nanotubes by Alternating Electrophoresis
Electrophoretic deposition of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using alternating current electric fields (0.01-1000 Hz) is reported. Pure acetone was used as suspending medium. Two parallel gold electrodes were used as depositing substrate. The effect of depositing parameters such as frequency and three waveforms (sinusoidal, rectangular and triangular) on deposit yield was investigated. According to ou...
متن کاملNonlinear ac responses of electro-magnetorheological fluids.
We apply a Langevin model to investigate the nonlinear ac responses of electro-magnetorheological (ERMR) fluids under the application of two crossed dc magnetic (z axis) and electric (x axis) fields and a probing ac sinusoidal magnetic field. We focus on the influence of the magnetic fields which can yield nonlinear behaviors inside the system due to the particles with a permanent magnetic dipo...
متن کاملDetermination of the effects of food preservatives benzoic acid and sodium nitrate on lifespan, fertility and physical growth in Caenorhabditis elegans
Presently, the use of protective food additives such as benzoic acid and sodium nitrate is quite common. However, it was found that these additives, which initially appeared to be harmless, led to the emergence of a number of health problems. Cancer and diseases and deaths with no apparent causes are among the leading concerns. Therefore, the studies which can reveal the genotoxic potential of ...
متن کاملAffectability of ceramic nanoparticles of different compound from surface characteristics in AC electrophoretic deposition
Surface characteristic of particles is one of the main parameters controlling the properties of deposited layer in electrophoretic deposition. To modify the surface characteristic of particles, one of the methods is the addition of additives to the suspensions of powder-solvent. There are many reports dealing with the effect of surface characteristics of particles on uniformity and pattern of d...
