Cytosolic Extract & Immunoprecipitation Protocol - http://www.genetics.wustl.edu/tslab/Protocols/CytosolicExtractv1_v2.htm

Protocol for cytosolic extract & immunoprecipitation. Includes: Culture; Harvest; Extract; Immunoprecipitation. - [Read Cytosolic Extract & Immunoprecipitation Protocol]

Preparation of Worm Extracts by Sonication Protocol - http://www.genetics.wustl.edu/tslab/Protocols/Cyto_extract_sonicat_v2.htm

Protocol was designed to rapidly generate small scale cytosolic extracts of C. elegans for Western or IP (has not been tested for RNA work). The protocol works well for between 50 to 5000 worms and has not been extensively tested on larger a scale, though it should work. Includes: Collection; Sonication; Clearing lysate; Immunoprecipitation. - [Read Preparation of Worm Extracts by Sonication Protocol]

Live Imaging of Caenorhabditis elegans: Preparation of Samples - http://www.cshprotocols.org/cgi/content/abstract/2006/29/pdb.prot4601

Protocol describes useful techniques for preparing C. elegans for live microscopic analysis. Details of sample preparation depend on the developmental stage of the worm to be studied. - [Read Live Imaging of Caenorhabditis elegans: Preparation of Samples]

Live Imaging of Caenorhabditis elegans: Examples - http://www.cshprotocols.org/cgi/content/extract/2006/29/pdb.ip19

To image early cleavages and chromatin dynamics, it is convenient to use histone H2B fused to GFP or lamin::GFP. Time-lapse movies can be obtained using conventional confocal microscope systems and their included software. Early embryos dissected from transgenic hermaphrodites are placed with egg salts on agar pads. - [Read Live Imaging of Caenorhabditis elegans: Examples]

Live Imaging of Caenorhabditis elegans: Observation of Nematodes and Data Collection Protocol - http://www.cshprotocols.org/cgi/content/extract/2006/29/pdb.ip18

At low magnification, dissection microscopes are useful, whereas at higher magnification and resolution, a wide range of optical methods can be used, including differential interference contrast (DIC) optics, phase contrast, fluorescence, polarized light, confocal, and dark field. - [Read Live Imaging of Caenorhabditis elegans: Observation of Nematodes and Data Collection Protocol]
