title: [Dynamic changes in amino acid and glucose in culture medium with adult Schistosoma japonicum].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To observe the dynamic changes in the contents of amino acid(AA), glucose(Gluc) and triglyceride(TG) in the culture medium containing adult Schistosoma japonicum.
  
  
  METHODS
  The contents of AA, Gluc and TG in the culture medium during the incubation period for d0 to 6 d were detected by amino acid automatic analyzer and automatic biochemical analyzer.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The contents of Arg, Thr, Met, and Lys and Gluc were reduced, Asp and Ala increased apparently. CONCLUASION: Increasing the levels of Arg, Thr, Met Lys and Gluc, reducing the levels of Asp and Ala, and changing the culture medium in time might be in favor of the in vitro cultivation of S. japonicum.
