Inhibitory effect of dimethyl sulfoxide on the development of gastrointestinal nematode larvae in the larval development test

Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an amphipathic solvent for molecules in in vitro tests for detection of anthelmintic resistance of gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). It has been shown to have a concentration-dependent detrimental effect on Caenorhabditis elegans, a free-living nematode. If GIN are likew...

Description
Summary:Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an amphipathic solvent for molecules in in vitro tests for detection of anthelmintic resistance of gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). It has been shown to have a concentration-dependent detrimental effect on Caenorhabditis elegans, a free-living nematode. If GIN are likewise affected, using DMSO in egg-hatch test and larval development test (LDT) may confound their results. Therefore, the DMSO concentration was determined at which it exerted an inhibitory effect on GIN larval development to the third stage.
