CAENORHABDITIS ELEGANS MUTANTS FOR DIAGNOSING CONTAMINATION OF SOIL CAUSED BY OIL OR RESTORATION OF SOIL CONTAMINATED BY OIL AND USES THEREOF

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing contamination of soil caused by oil or restoration of soil contaminated by oil, comprising a step of measuring the survival rate of soil organisms after exposing the soil organism to the soil, and a kit and a composition for diagnosing contamination of soil caused by oil or restoration of soil contaminated by oil including transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans or Caenorhabditis elegans mutants to decrease gene function related to stress where using genetically modified mutants of Caenorhabditis elegans in an aspect of genomics is allowed to monitor soil contaminated by oil, thereby significantly making contribution to take measures to purify toxic soil caused by oil.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2015
