Analysis of neuromuscular functionality of C. elegans exposed to ZNGs. a Evaluation of pumping rates in nematodes treated or not with ZNGs, by measuring the number of pharynx contractions in 30Â s. b analysis of locomotion behavior following ZNGs treatment by counting nematodes bending in the time interval of 1Â min. Statistical analysis was evaluated by one-way ANOVA method with the Bonferroni post-test (ns not significant)
