ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method and device for the in vitro testing of potential nematicidal and nematistatic agents, comprising treatment of nematodes with test substances, followed by assessment of the ability of the treated nematodes to move through a chemattractant gradient set up on a coated solid support, said coating comprising a gellable polymeric substrate incorporating a stabilizing agent.
