Changes in the calcium content in E. granulosus PSC after treatment with 20 µg/ml Vepm for 4 days in vitro. a Calcium distribution in E. granulosus PSC, as assayed by SEM–energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (SEM-EDS). Merged image of multi-element (a, c) and calcium (b, d) distributions in PSC in the vehicle (a, b) and the Vepm groups (c, d). b Percentage of calcium content in E. granulosus PSC, as measured by SEM-EDS. c Calcium content in the culture supernatants of E. granulosus PSC exposed to Vepm (0, 20, 40, 80, 100 µg/ml) as measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
