TABLE 1.

Susceptibilities of wild-type, IVM-selected, and MOX-selected C. elegans strains to IVM and MOXd

Treatment Mean EC50 (nM) ± SD for wild-type Bristol N2 (no. of expts) IVM-selected strain (IVR10)
MOX-selected strain
Mean EC50 (nM) ± SD (no. of expts) RF Mean EC50 (nM) ± SD (no. of expts) RF
IVM 1.69 ± 0.30 (9) 12.43 ± 1.65 (7)a 7.34 12.46 ± 0.96 (8)a 7.35
MOX 1.77 ± 0.25 (9) 3.06 ± 0.51 (11)a,b,c 1.74 4.24 ± 0.58 (9)a,b,c 2.39
a

P < 0.001 versus the wild type.

b

P < 0.001 versus IVM.

c

P < 0.001 for IVM-selected versus MOX-selected strains.

d

The EC50 was calculated from LDA data. RF (resistance factor) is the fold resistance relative to Bristol N2, equal to the EC50 for ML-selected strains/EC50 for N2B. The ratios of the EC50 of IVM to the EC50 of MOX were 0.96 for the Bristol N2 strain, 4.03 for the IVM-selected strain, and 2.94 for the MOX-selected strain.
