The total number of eggs was calculated by counting eggs in multiple representative aliquots of each collection.
Two percent aliquots of the total worm burden were counted.
The bags were checked daily for evidence of green colour and aliquots were removed for absorbance spectra after 8 days.
Positive results were confirmed by repeating the assay using two aliquots from the same sample.
The remaining homogenate was centrifuged for 2 min at 10,000 g before aliquots of supernatant were removed for the following assays.
At the start and after 5 h of incubation, aliquots were removed and analysed.
The supernatants were divided in two aliquots for further analysis.
The drug solutions were prepared from frozen aliquots of stock solution, dissolved in extracellular solution, and applied from seven-barrel pneumatic puffer pipettes.
