A brief study about the preservation of Echinococcus granulosus protoscolices in vitro for a long periods.
Main Article Content
Abstract
Simple attempt were applied to keep the protoscolices of Echinococcus granulosus removed from human hydatid cysts alive with full activity in vitro using different culture media [RPMI-1640, Physiological Ringer’s solution(RS), Physiological normal saline solution(NS)], the best temperature for cultivation in this media were also investigated between three degrees (4, 25, 37)°C .
The best medium for cultivation with a high activity was (NS) solution where the protoscolices continue for (75) days in (25)°C. Whereas the best temperature for cultivation was variable according to the cultivation medium.
