  • Title: The possible fate of crystal harbouring larvae of Haemonchus contortus.
    Author: Eysker M.
    Journal: Res Vet Sci; 1979 Jan; 26(1):115-6. PubMed ID: 472480.
    Abstract:
    An examination of the occurrence of crystalline inclusions in the intestinal cells of fourth and fifth stage Haemonchus contortus revealed that a high percentage of inhibited early fourth stage larvae (L4) and developing L4 and a lower percentage of early fifth stage larvae (L5) harboured these crystals. Before the fourth moult crystals were falling into pieces, indicating that worms harbouring crystals can develop further. The presence of crystals may be associated with a retardation of development.
