A fully automatic computer-controlled video analysis system has been used to study the movement of the green unicellular flagellate, Euglena gracilis in a horizontal or vertical cuvette. In darkness, in the absence of gaseous gradients, most cells swim straight upwards. While in a horizontal cuvette
The effects of the heavy metal ions copper, cadmium, mercury and lead on motility and photo-orientation have been assayed in the photosynthetic flagellate Euglena pcilis. The first three elements were tested in both shortterm and long-term experiments, but lead was only tested in short-term experim
