Title: Calcification of Trichinella spiralis larval capsule. Author: Machnicka B, Dziemian E, Dabrowska J, Walski M. Journal: Parasitol Res; 2005 Dec; 97(6):501-4. PubMed ID: 16211414. Abstract: Trichinella spiralis larvae were examined in TEM to identify calcareous corpuscles in the outer part of parasite capsule. The microroentgenographic analysis of calcareous corpuscles mainly demonstrated the presence of phosphorus and calcium. The physiological importance of calcareous corpuscles, as well as their significance in decay of T. spiralis larvae were discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
