Viability of adult Schistosoma mansoni worms after incubation with different concentrations of phendione and its metal complexes (Cu-phendione and Ag-phendione). Control groups included parasites incubated in drug-free medium, praziquantel (PZQ), metal salts (AgNO₃ and CuSO₄·5 H₂O), and 1% DMSO. Schistosomes were obtained from animals by perfusion 49 days post-infection. Each concentration was tested in triplicate, and worm viability was monitored for up to 72 h. Data represent the mean ± S.D. from at least three independent experiments performed in triplicate.
