Anthelmintic Drug Potency: IC50 and LC50 Values for C. elegans at Day 4

IC50 and LC50 values for different anthelmintics measured in micrograms per milliliter on the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans at day 4. The dataset is 5.5 KB in size, authored by Sam A. Attalla, and was last updated on April 17, 2026. It is available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Compare the relative potency of different anthelmintic drugs based on reported IC50 values.
• Model drug toxicity thresholds for C. elegans based on the provided LC50 values.
• Benchmark new anthelmintic compounds against established drugs using the day 4 time point.

Strengths

• Data is focused on a specific, measurable biological endpoint (day 4).
• File size of 5.5 KB indicates a compact, focused dataset.
• Uses standard pharmacological metrics (IC50, LC50).

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
