| Potentiation of zinc stress caused by parasitic infection of snails (1977) | |||||||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||||||
| The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effects of parasitism ( Schistosomatium douthitti Price and Trichobilharzia sp.) on the tolerance of snails Lymnaea stagnalis (L.) to acutely lethal concentrations of zinc. Significant reduction in tolerance occurred for snails with patent infections at 24 and 75 ppm of Zn ++ . At two selected prepatent levels of parasite development, significant differences occurred at the higher concentration only..
