Quantitative Assessment of Fat Levels in Caenorhabditis elegans Using Dark Field Microscopy

The roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans is widely used as a model for studying conserved pathways for fat storage, aging, and metabolism. The most broadly used methods for imaging fat in C. elegans require fixing and staining the animal. Here, we show that dark field images acquired through an ordinary...
