The in vitro growth and development of the early larval stages of the codworm, Terranova decipiens
The second-stage larva of the codworm, Terranova decipiens, has been cultivated in Eagle's basal medium (BME) and 20% foetal calf serum over a period of 4 months. Thus far, exsheathment, growth to 10 × 0.20 mm, and the early development of the intestinal caecum have been completed.
