We tested the effect of four mutations that specifically affect the dense bodies ( pfn-3, atn-1, uig-1, dyc-1) and three that affect both the dense bodies and the M-lines ( zyx-1, unc-95, tln-1). Despite these proteins localizing to the same multi-protein complexes, previously reported phenotypes were often distinct (Table S1), perhaps indicating specific functions of individual proteins or differences in the extent of the effect of the specific mutation studied. As chemotaxis is an important element of our burrowing assay, we conducted standard 2D chemotaxis assays on agar plates in parallel to ascertain if the phenotypic score of some mutants is more obvious in the burrowing assay as compared to the standard chemotaxis assay.

If your nail polish has a logo from a recognised body such as The Vegan Society or is certified Peta-Approved, it is vegan and cruelty-free. This means that it has no animal-derived ingredients and has not been tested on animals – making it perfect for vegan clients! Wen, J. Y. et al.

Dissection of C. elegans behavioral genetics in 3-D environments. Scientific reports 5, 9564 (2015). We tested wild-type animals in the presence and absence of chemotactic stimulus, E. coli OP50 (the animal’s standard food source) (Fig. 1b). We observed that in the presence of the stimulus, the percentage of animals reaching the top surface increased with time, saturating at ≈60% after 2 hours. In contrast, without any chemotactic stimulus added to the gel surface, the percentage of animals reaching the top remained <20%. Since the assay engages the animals to burrow from the bottom toward the top, going against gravity, we also tested whether gravitactic stimulus influences the burrowing performance. We conducted a set of experiments where the well plate was turned upside down after introduction of the chemoattractant, and we found no considerable impact on the percentage of the animals reaching the gel surface (Fig. S1). Thus, the overall direction of burrowing with respect to gravity does not influence burrowing performance, and chemotactic stimulus is essential for animals to burrow efficiently towards the surface and engage in 3D locomotion.

Vegan-Friendly Antibacterial Hand Gels & Sanitisers

Plant Power by Nails Inc is a revolutionary product with a 73% Plant-Based formula. It’s vegan, cruelty free and Halal and has been created free from formaldehyde, acetone and parabens. The technology within the product provides a salon professional finish with no compromise on colour, wear time, or quality. To top it off, there’s even an eco-friendly wooden cap to ditch the iconic plastic cap – an all-around incredible product! Neal’s Yard Remedies Organic Defence Hand Spray– This high-end vegan-friendly hand sanitiser doesn’t come cheap, but its alcohol-based formulation includes an array of natural ingredients, such as niaouli, lemongrass, witch hazel, thyme oil and more, which gives it a quite beautiful fragrance and this spray doesn’t dry your hands as much as many hand gels. Like many consumer products that contain chemicals (from shampoo to make up), there is a reasonable chance that any hand sanitiser or gel could have been tested on animals at some stage in its development. As with certain medicines and vaccinations, there might be a regulatory requirement for such products to have been tested on animals at some point, or at least for certain ingredients and formulations to have been tested on animals. AM Gel Polish colours are HEMA-free and are 100% Vegan. With a range of stunning colours available, including glitters, this range promises chip-free and long-lasting wear with precise application every time with the ergonomically designed brush. Use the ‘Get on Top’ topcoat for a high gloss finish. 2 AM gel cures for 30 seconds under LED lamps and lasts 2-3 weeks. Morley, J. F., Brignull, H. R., Weyers, J. J. & Morimoto, R. I.
