==Mechanisms of Resistance==

==Mechanisms of Resistance==

This is still an area of research, but most methods of resistance seem to revolve around a reduced binding site affinity. For [[benzimidazoles]] it seems that there is less affinity to the tubulin binding site. [[Macrocyclic Lactones]] seem to have increased expression of a non-specific transmembrane efflux pump that can eject toxins out of thenematode.

RFLP assay and a specific PCR-reaction have been made to test for [[benzimidazole]] resistance.
