Digenetic trematode Prohemistomum vivax and its effect on human health

Více o knize

The study investigates the physiological changes in liver and kidney functions of albino mice infected with the metacercariae of Prohemistomum vivax, sourced from Nile fish. Key enzymes such as LDH, G6PDH, 6PGDH, ACP, and ALP were analyzed through electrophoresis before and after a four-week infection period. Findings suggest a long-term health risk to humans from consuming infected fish, emphasizing the importance of sourcing fish from clean waters or farms to avoid potential hazards associated with this parasitic infection.
