Abstract
The storage life of T. saginata eggs at 2- 5[degree] C in 1:10,000 Merthiolate in normal saline was found to be variable. Some batches became noninfective within 4 weeks, but 5 others were used successfully to infect calves 65, 79, 120, 136 and 168 days respectively after collection.Keywords
