Figure 2. Electrophoresis and fluorography of protein extracts from T. crassiceps cysticerci maintained under in vitro culture in the presence of IgG-³H or GFP-³H.

Cysticerci were cultured in the presence of IgG-³H or GFP-³H and a paired group of cysticerci was cultured with Leu-³H for 9 days. After harvesting the cysts, samples of TE, VF, and CM were obtained. (A) All extracts were resolved in 10% SDS-PAGE and treated for fluorography. The X-ray films were exposed to dried gels for approximately 30 days. (B) SDS-PAGE patterns of cysticerci’s extracts stained with Coomassie blue.
