Detection of mouse IgG binding on the surface of murine adult S. japonicum.
(a) Detection of mouse IgG on the surface of whole adult worms using laser confocal microscopy. F-actin was labeled with Alexa Fluor 488 phalloidin (green) and mouse IgG was detected with Alexa Fluor 555 donkey anti-mouse IgG (red) on the surface of both male (right) and female (left) adult worms. (b) Detection of mouse IgG (in red) on the surface of frozen sections of schistosome using fluorescence microscopy. (c) Detection of mouse IgG (in red) on the surface of a frozen section of adult blood flukes using laser confocal microscopy. DIC: differential interference contrast.
