Outline of general strategies of phenotyping in C. elegans using RNAi and sorters. The sorting techniques COPAS and laFACS can be used to sort live worms. FACS is used to rapidly sort and collect large quantities of live larvae from a mixed population. After laFACs, pure GFP or mutant worms can be used for either genetic or chemical screens, microarray or biochemical assays.
