introduction: to determine an indicator for triclabendazole (tcbz) efficacy, alanine aminotransferase (alt) activity in fasciola hepatica (iranian isolate) parasite in presence and absence of tcbz was evaluated by an in vitro cultivation method. also, alt enzyme activity between none and parasitized-infected sheep liver tissues was assessed. method:  the sheep livers were collected and transfer...

background: aspartate transaminase (ast) is an important enzyme in parasite and liver tissue. the purpose of this investigation is to evaluate triclabendazole (tcbz) effect on ast activity of fasciola gigantica parasite. to compare of enzyme level of parasite and its host tissue, enzyme activity of f. gigantica parasite and liver tissues were also determined. method: the livers were collected f...
