Echinococcus Granulosus: Suitable in vitro Protoscolices Culture Density
The present study is to determine the suitable protoscolices (PSCs) density for long-time culturing in vitro. The PSCs were divided into eight groups with different densities and the viability tests were carried out with 0.1% methylene blue staining. Then the infection ability of cultured PSCs was a...

Zusammenfassung: | The present study is to determine the suitable protoscolices (PSCs) density for long-time culturing in vitro. The PSCs were divided into eight groups with different densities and the viability tests were carried out with 0.1% methylene blue staining. Then the infection ability of cultured PSCs was assessed by the mean cyst weight of mice inoculated intraperitoneally with PSCs after 8 months post-infection. |
