Abstract

In this video, we demonstrate a screening assay to identify the efficacy of small-molecule nematicides against nematodes. Nematicides are considered effective if they cause a decrease in the number of mobile nematodes in the sample after exposure.
Protocol
All procedures involving animal models have been reviewed by the local institutional animal care committee and the JoVE veterinary review board 1. In vitro small molecule screen Prepare the assay plates following the steps below. Pour autoclaved distilled water into a sterile trough and, using a multichannel pipette, dispense 40 µL of distilled water from the trough into each well of a flat-bottom 96-well plate. Pre…
