Analysis of the chemical components of hydatid fluid from Echinococcus granulosus

Analysis of the chemical components of hydatid fluid from Echinococcus granulosus.

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to explore the environment of Echinococcus granulosus (E. granulosus) protoscolices and their relationship with their host. METHODS Proteins from the hydatid-cyst fluid (HCF) from E. granulosus were identified by proteomics. An inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES) was used to determine the elements, an automatic biochemical a...

Chemical Composition of Hydatid Cyst Fluid of Echinococcus granulosus

Sumnuuy The fluid of hydatid cysts occurring in the liver and the lung have been analysed for proteins, carbohydrates, nitrogenow waste products, lipids, electrolytes and nucleic acids contents. The data obtained from the fluid of the liver cysts were compared with those obtained from the lung cysts. Furthermore, the same analyses were carried out to investigate what kind of changes, if any, oc...

Isolation and purification of Echinococcus granulosus antigen B from hydatid cyst fluid using three different methods

Hydatid cyst, the larval stage of cestodes Echinococcus spp., is recognized as a zoonotic infection in the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recently classified echinococcosis in a group of neglected tropical diseases.The prevalence of Echinococcus granulosus infection is high in Iran due to the presence of various intermediate hosts in this country. Considering the rising trend of...
