Notes

A new method for the "in vitro" culture and maintenance of free-living coprophilous nematodes Rhabditella axei and Pelodera punctata is described. With this method the culture and maintenance of these nematodes is seen to be remarkably simple and therefore facilitate their use as "spy-organisms" to reveal "active" residues of nematocide substances in food.
