(A) Syphacia muris eggs exposed to 400 mg/L chlorine dioxide gas compared with (B) control eggs. Hatched eggs are considered viable and capable of infection. The cuticle of hatched eggs appears compromised and may sometimes show a worm-like appendage (black arrow) protruding from the egg itself. Eggs exposed to the experimental condition have distorted capsules and irregular contents (open arrow) or appear indistinct (red arrow).
