Effect of isomyristicin and bergapten on the survival of S. mansoni schistosomula.
(A) Trypan blue stained images (20×) showing 100% lethality to schistosomula (250 μg/mL compound concentrations) and first signs of lethal effects observed at 31.2 μg/mL of the two compounds tested. Deep blue staining signifies a dead parasite. (B) The effect of the two compounds on schistosomula survival at different concentrations (250–1.95 μg/mL). The data was generated from triplicate samples obtained from two independent studies.
