Evaluation in white mice of the infectivity of egs of Lagochilascaris minor (Nematoda: ascarididae), incubated by decortication with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) Evaluación en ratones albinos de la infectividad de huevos de Lagochilascaris minor (Nematoma: ascarididae), incubados con substancias preservadoras de uso frecuente. Incremento por el descortezamiento con Hipoclorito de Sodio

White mice were used to study the infectivity of the eggs of Lagochilascaris minor Leiper, 1909 after incubation in liquid media, with or without preservative substances. Potassium bichromate (K2Cr2O7) at 1% restrict hatching, while 1% formalin gave a greater larval yield. Incubation of eggs in dist...
