Comparison of morphological differences of the dead worms after treatment with plumbagin (PBG) and sanguinarine (SGR). (A) Morphological appearance of dead schistosome worms after treatment with sanguinarine (left) and plumbagin (right) (under a microscopic field). (B) Actual average size of dead worms (male and female) after treatment with either sanguinarine, plumbagin or DMSO (control). No significant difference was found between sanguinarine and DMSO control in either sex.
