Cultivation of Schistosoma mansoni In vitro. I. Establishment of Cultures from Cercariae and Development until Pairing

Open access

Abstract

Procedures are described for mass cultivation of Schistosoma mansoni. Cercariae were pooled, concentrated, and axenized through a series of washes in base medium containing antibiotics. Cercariae were sheared through a double-Luer-ended needle connected to two syringes, and tails separated and discarded. Young schistosomules were grown in a medium based upon BME augmented with lactalbumin hydrolysate, glucose, hormones, and other amendments and supplemented with human serum. Human blood cells (Type O) were added to cultures. Intestinal pigment was seen on the 5th day and gut cecal fusion began on day 11. Schistosomules developed steadily to pairing, which was seen first during the 7th wk of culture. Pairing occurred somewhat later in relation to development in vivo.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
