彭亨丝虫和马来丝虫接种沙鼠(长爪沙鼠)的初步成功,使人们有希望利用它来进行抗丝虫药的筛选。由于皮下接种法产生的阳性鼠体内的虫负荷往往有很大的变异,在接种相同幼虫数量的沙鼠之间,微丝勤密度有相当大的不同,给药筛工作带来不便,所以作者 The initial success of the penicillium and malayi worms in inoculating gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) made it promising to use it for screening anti-filarial drugs. As the burden of insects in positive mice produced by the subcutaneous inoculation often varies greatly, there is considerable variation in the micro-logistic density between gerbils inoculated with the same number of larvae and the inconvenience of administering the screen,
