Notes
Abstract: This presentation discusses research on lipids in Caenorhabditis elegans exposed to oxygen deprivation. This project was supported in part by a grant from the National Institute of Health. The author's hypothesis is that oxygen deprivation affects lipid accumulation. The research approach for this study involved using the dye Nile Red to assay lipid/fat accumulation in C. elegans. The results show increased detection of lipids in worms exposed to anoxia.
