id: ECO:0005609 name: capillary assay evidence def: "A type of chemotaxis assay evidence where the presence or absence of positive or negative chemotaxis in swimming organisms is determined (typically bacteria or archaea) by measuring the rate of accumulation of the organism into a capillary." [ECO:SN, PMID:4632978] is_a: ECO:0005021 ! chemotaxis assay evidence comment: To determine the presence of positive chemotaxis, an attractant is placed in the capillary and the presence of positive chemotaxis is determined based on the amount of organism that accumulated in the capillary.\nTo determine the presence of negative chemotaxis, a repellent is added to the organismal suspension (but not in the capillary) and the organisms that fled into the capillary are measured.	<obo_figure/>
