Abstract
Optimum conditions for the in vitro transformation of Diplostomum spathaceum cercariae have been established by which large numbers of post-penetration larvae (diplostomules) can be produced; short-term maintenance of diplostomules in vitro is described. Experimental studies on this migratory larval stage may now be possible.Keywords
