USE OF SEMI-HYDROLYZED COLLAGEN FOR EXTRACTION OF L1 OF ANGIOSTRONGYLUS CANTONENSIS FROM RODENTS FECES
Larval purification techniques encompass methods that depend on the biology of the organism, its matrices and objectives. In this context, fecal samples are difficult substrates to handle due to the presence of particles that can compromise their use for research into various pathologies. This study presents a technique using semi-hydrolyzed collagen for the purification of larvae from feces of rodents experimentally infected with metastrongyles.
