Determining the viability of Schistosoma mansoni cercariae using fluorescence assays: An application for water treatment

BACKGROUND: Schistosome cercariae are the human-infectious stage of the Schistosoma parasite. They are shed by snail intermediate hosts living in freshwater, and penetrate the skin of the human host to develop into schistosomes, resulting in schistosomiasis infection.
