Carbohydrate Metabolism in Angiostrongylus cantonensis

The Journal of Parasitology, 1965
Female Angiostrongylus cantonensis consumed more glucose than males; they also contained more glycogen and total carbohydrates. The rates of glucose absorption were not significantly different whether or not the medium was supplemented with 10% serum or whether or not the atmosphere contained 5% CO2. Strong inhibition of glucose absorption was achieved
