The survival of adult worms was represented as mean ± SD. The data were analyzed by Student’s t-test
*P value < 0.05 was significant
**P value < 0.01 was highly significant
LC50 were calculated based on the Quest Graph online program: https://www.aatbio.com/tools/ic50-calculator. Each well/each plate contained 25 living adult worms at the beginning of the in vitro cultivation
