Abstract:In the present study , we investigate the effect of Gamma radiation of wavelength 81.58416X10^-13 on the viability of protoscolices , the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus , which was isolated from liver hydatid cysts of invested sheep.
The study was accomplished on 80 white male mice , the mice were divided randomly into four equal groups , group 3 and 4 were invested intra peritoneally with 2000 Gamma irradiated protoscolices, with 5 and 25 Gray of Gamma rays for 1.2 and 6.6 minutes respectively… Show more
