Fig. 6.14. Agarose gel electrophoresis of Echinococcus granulosus (horse strain) RNA. The samples in lanes 1,2,7 and 16 were prepared in 10 mM phosphate buffer, pH 6.8, and were not denatured. The samples in lanes 3, 4, 8 and 13-15 were denatured in 50% (w/v) dimethylsulphoxide in 10 mM phosphate buffer, pH 6.8. The samples in lanes 5,6,9 and 10 12 were denatured in 1 m glyoxal/3 m urea in 10mM phosphate buffer, pH 6.8. Lanes 1,3 and 5, E. granulosus total nucleic acids (10 fig) lanes 2,4 and 6, E. granulosus RNA (5 fig) lanes 7,8 and 9, Escherichia coli RNA (10 fig) lanes 10-16, Schistosoma mansoni RNA (10 fig). The E. coli RNA was included as a molecular weight marker the larger subunit is approximately 1 000 000 and the smaller subunit is 500 000. The RNA was visualised by staining with ethidium bromide and ultraviolet illumination. (After McManus et al., 1985.)...

GROWTH PATTERNS OF THE PROTOSCOLEX IN VITRO When cultured in vitro, a protoscolex can develop into a variety of different forms (339, 791, 795) and it is important to appreciate their interrelationships before considering the more general problems of asexual/sexual differentation (Fig. 10.5). Slightly different forms develop in the horse strain of E. granulosus (706). The following forms have been identified. 

Free posterior bladder (Fig. 10.5(f)). In the horse strain (but not the sheep strain), some posterior bladders may become separated from protoscoleces and form independent bladders. These also develop into miniature cysts and secrete a laminated membrane (706).

Benzathine penicillin and procaine penicillin G for intramuscular injection yield low but prolonged drug levels. A single intramuscular injection of benzathine penicillin, 1.2 million units, is effective treatment for 3-hemolytic streptococcal pharyngitis given intramuscularly once every 3-4 weeks, it prevents reinfection. Benzathine penicillin G, 2.4 million units intramuscularly once a week for 1-3 weeks, is effective in the treatment of syphilis. Procaine penicillin G, formerly a work horse for treating uncomplicated pneumococcal pneumonia or gonorrhea, is rarely used now because many strains are penicillin-resistant.
