Host-finding behavior of Strongyloides stercoralis infective larvae to sodium cation, human serum, and sweat

The host-finding behavior of Strongyloides stercoralis infective larvae was examined by in vitro agarose assay method. As human body fluid contains 0.85% (ca 0.15 molar) NaCl, various concentrations of sodium chloride, from 0.5M to 0.01M (7 steps), were examined. Many larvae were attracted at concen...
