A novel high throughput assay for anthelmintic drug screening and resistance diagnosis by real-time monitoring of parasite motility.
BACKGROUND: Helminth parasites cause untold morbidity and mortality to billions of people and livestock. Anthelmintic drugs are available but resistance is a problem in livestock parasites, and is a looming threat for human helminths. Testing the efficacy of available anthelmintic drugs and developm...
