Abstract
|
|
|
A study on morphology and periodicity of microfilariae was carried out in the area surveyed, Chung Cheong-nam Do.
1. The measurements of microfilariae from the Giemsa stanined thick film were made and they showed that body length was 186.0(156-245)p, maximum width 5.0(4-6),u, and cephalic space length by width 1.5 : 1, percent distance from ante-rior end to cephalic space 4.21, nervering 22.87, excretory pore 31.35, excretory cell 38.85, Gl cell 58.77, anal pore 82.04, from the last nucleus of posterior end to the last 2nd nucleus 2.56, and the posterior body nucleus 4.69 U, respectively.
2. The periodicity of the micofilaria counts in peripheral blood of a man was obser-ved, and it was found that the characteristic nocturnal periodicity was seen from in the case. The peak of microfilaria counts showed between 12 p. m. and 4 a.m.
3. When stained with Giemsa solution, 15.9% of microfilariae shed their sheath.
As a result of the above findings the microfilariae might be identified Brugia malayi.
