| Abstract | ||
| A study was conducted invitro to determine the effects of storage at temperature 4 Cº upon the survival of protoscolices of Echinococcus granulosus from 86 hydatid cysts isolated from infected donkeys . Flam cell activity was the choice for viability , in addition using vital stain (0.1% aqueous eosin) . The result showed that higher percentage survival 94.41% in hydatid fluid for 9 days . The longest survival times of any of the samples tested was 81 days with the survival percentage 85% and the lowest was 33% for 13 days , showing movement till the end of this period . Our results proved the protoscolices removed from cyst retain their survival for several weeks at refrigerator temperature when stored in hydatid fluid in test tubes . | ||
