[Studies in vivo and in vitro on relations between Schistosoma mansoni and some enterobacteria strains].
Studies performed in vivo and in vitro, using scanning electron microscopy, on relations between Schistosoma mansoni and some enterobacteria show a strong association for certain bacterial strains (Salmonella typhimurium). Salmonellae adhesion on tegumental surface of male and mature Schistosoma is only possible in vitro owing to bacterial synthesis of strong fibres penetrating inside the worm. These interactions are not found with Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis or with young schistosomula.
