摘要
Adult Schistosoma mansoni from experimentally infected mice and Fasciola hepatica recovered from ovine livers post mortem were analyzed for free and conjugated ecdysteroids by radioimmunoassay, high-performance liquid chromatography monitoring fractions by radioimmunoassay, and by capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (selected ion monitoring). Both species contained ecdysone and 20-hydroxyecdysone as free ecdysteroids and as polar conjugates. F. hepatica also contained a polar conjugate of 2-deoxyecdysone. Evidence of apolar ecdysteroid conjugates was only obtained for F. hepatica. The free ecdysteroid-containing fraction of S. mansoni contained small amounts of unidentified immunoreactive material.
