Abstract | ||
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the protoscolicidal activity of aqeous and 70 % alcoholic extracts of the seed of the plant (Semmar) Juncus rigidus with different concentrations (5,10,15,20) % . The results showed that all concentrations have the ability to kill the protoscolices at 4- 8 days after treatment . The aqeous extract of the concentration (20)% showed the ability to kill all the protoscolices at the fourth day after treatment more than any concentration according to R.L.S.D. test. The aqeuos extract in all concentrations have more effect than the alcoholic extract on killing the protoscolices at the same concentrations. Hank´s reservative solution has been proved to keep the control group alive up to (20) days. | ||
