Newly excysted metacercariae of Haplorchis taichui were cultured in a candle jar set at 37 degrees C. Both monophasic culture media [0.85% NaCl, RPMI 1640, RPMI 1640+10% fetal calf serum (FCS)] and diphasic culture media [RPMI 1640 + egg yolk agar, RPMI 1640 + 5%, 10% or 15% blood in blood agar (BA), RMPI 1640 + 5%, 10% and 15% FCS with 5% blood in BA] were used in vitro. Parasites survived for...
