Fig. 2. The lengthfrequency distribution of nematodes that survived
anhydrobiosis compared with a matched control. Treated nematodes were
preconditioned at 98% RH (relative humidity) for 48 h, desiccated for 24 h
over activated silica gel, `prehydrated' at 100% RH for 24 h and rehydrated in
M9 buffer for 24 h before survivors were isolated and measured. The control
samples were maintained at 98% RH for 96 h and rehydrated in S Basal buffer
for 24 h before survivors were isolated and their lengths determined.
