Identification of interneurons required for the aversive response of Caenorhabditis elegans to graphene oxide

Abstract Background So far, how the animals evade the environmental nanomaterials is still largely unclear. In this study, we employed in vivo assay system of Caenorhabditis elegans to investigate the aversive behavior of nematodes to graphene oxide (GO) and the underlying neuronal basis. Results In...
