International Journal for Parasitology

Abstract

This paper describes the effectiveness of ABZ, ABZ.SO and ABZ + ABZ.SO treatment in mice infected with Echinococcus granulosus protoscoleces. The results were evaluated in two ways: measuring the number and wet weight of developed cysts and by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) of tissue cyss. ABZ and ABZ + ABZ.SO had an important effect upon larval growth in E. granulosus. The ultrastructural changes noted were: vacuolation of tegumentary cells of the germinal membrane; increased number of mitochondria; increased number of autophagosomes and an increase in lipid deposits.

Anthelmintics (ASM)

Anthelmintics or antihelminthics are a group of antiparasitic drugs that expel parasitic worms (helminths) and other internal parasites from the body by either stunning or killing them and without causing significant damage to the host. Discover the latest research on anthelmintics here.
