RESUMO

The purpose of the present study was to observe the survival and development of Clonorchis sinensis metacercariae in their final hosts after Co-60 gamma irradiation exerting on both metacercariae isolated or in fish. Guinea pigs or albino rats were orally infected by gavage. Bio-assay, fecal examination for ova and dissection of infected animals were used for the estimation of minimum effective dose of gamma irradiation to control infectivity of Clonorchis sinensis metacercariae. Results showed that the minimum effective irradiation dose for isolated metacercariae was 0.05 kGy. The LD50 of the irradiation dose for metacercariae in fish was 0.05 kGy, and the minimum effective dose was 0.15 kGy. No significant difference in radiation susceptibility to Co-60 gamma irradiation was found among Clonorchis sinensis metacercariae in fishes collected at different localities in the northern, middle or southern parts of China. The present finding suggests that irradiation of the fish at a dose of 0.15 kGy could control the infectivity of Clonorchis sinensis metacercariae and thus be adopted as a control measure in preventive medicine.

RESUMO

A study was made to observe the effect of cobalt-60 irradiation on the viability of Paragonimus westermani metacercariae in Sinopotamon chekiangense crabs. The crabs were collected in mountain regions of the Zhejiang Province of China in which paragonimiasis is endemic. Adult cats and albino mice were infected with metacercariae irradiated at different doses. Dissection of the host animals was conducted 90 or 30 days, respectively, after infection for recovery of lung flukes. Anti-metacercariae antibody in infected mice was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results showed that metacercariae were unable to grow into adult worms in cats after exposure to gamma irradiation at a dose of 0.10 kGray. However, a small number of metacercariae exposed to a dose of 2.0 kGray excysted and survived in 1 mouse for 30 days. No worm was recovered from mice when the metacercariae were irradiated at a dose of 2.5 kGray. Seropositive results by ELISA were obtained when the mice were infected with metacercariae irradiated at doses ranging from 2.0 to 3.5 kGray.

RESUMO

The purpose of the present study was to observe the survival and development of Clonorchis sinensis metacercariae in their final hosts after Cobalt-60 gamma irradiation of isolated metacercariae or the parasite in fish. Guinea pigs or albino rats were orally infected with irradiated metacercariae by gavage. Bioassay, fecal examination for ova, and necropsy of infected animals, were the methods used for the estimation of minimum effective dose of gamma irradiation to control infectivity of the metacercariae. Results showed that the minimum effective irradiation dose for isolated metacercariae was 0.05 kGy. The LD50 of the irradiation dose for metacercariae in fish was 0.05 kGy, and the minimum effective dose was 0.15 kGy. No significant difference in radiation susceptibility to Co-60 gamma irradiation was found among C. sinensis metacercariae in fishes collected at different localities in northern, middle or southern parts of China. The present finding suggests that irradiation of fish by 0.15 kGy could control infectivity of C. Sinensis metacercariae and thus be adopted as a control measure in preventing infections.
