We have monitored oxygen consumption as a measure of the rate of aerobic metabolism during the lifetime of Caenorhabditis elegans. We have also developed a chemiluminescent technique which measures exogenous NADPH-stimulated superoxide anion production by freeze-thawed worms. In this assay light pro
We report that the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans can respond to a variety of stressors (compounds known to induce the production of cellular stress proteins in model biological systems), by ceasing pharyngeal pumping. This phenomenon results in both a reduction in intake of the stresso
## Abstract PCR, genomic DNA isolation, and agarose gel electrophoresis are common molecular biology techniques with a wide range of applications. Therefore, we have developed a series of exercises employing these techniques for an intermediate level undergraduate molecular biology laboratory cours
