Fig. 6From: Assessment of tegumental damage to Schistosoma mansoni and S. haematobium after in vitro exposure to ferrocenyl, ruthenocenyl and benzyl derivatives of oxamniquine using scanning electron microscopyControl group of adult S. haematobium. a Head of a male showing oral and ventral suckers and the gynaecophoric canal. b Dorsal and lateral side of a male with tubercles and ridges. c Dorsal side of the mid-part of male showing ridges, sensory papillae and apex-spine-free tubercles. d Mid-part of the body of a female revealing the smooth tegument with ridges and sensory papillae. Abbreviations: GC, gynaecophoric canal; OS/VS, oral/ventral sucker; P, papillae; R, ridges; SFA, spine free apex; T, tubercles. Scale-bars: a, 200 μm; b, 50 μm; c, 20 μm; d, 50 μmBack to article page
