Takiguchi et al. found that the ciliated protozoan Paramecium caudatum ON-1 was repelled by 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). The figure shows that after retarding the cell’s movement with glass fibers, a KCl-filled microelectrode was slowly inserted into the midsection of the cell on the coverslip by using a three-axis oil hydraulic micromanipulator.
