Evolutionary Applications, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 488-500, April 2018., 2018 Abstract Natural selection acts on all organisms, including parasites, to maximize reproductive fitness. Drug resistance traits are often associated with life‐history costs in the absence of treatment. Schistosomiasis control programmes rely on mass drug administration to reduce human morbidity and mortality.

Journal of Nanomaterials, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 The land snail Eobania vermiculata is an important crop pest causing considerable damage in agriculture. The aim of the present work is to evaluate the possibilities of using silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) to control the land snail. The AgNPs have been synthesized biologically using white radish (Raphanus sativus var. aegyptiacus).

Evaluation of Fentonʼs Reagent Toxicity to Biomphalaria Alexandrina Snails
International Journal of Zoology and Animal Biology, 2020 Fentonʼs reagent is considered a promising disinfecting agent as it has antimicrobial activity. In the present study, effective antifungal Fenton concentrations were investigated on Biomphalaria alexandrina snails as bio indicators of toxicity. Generally, they resulted in low mortality rate of snails, as only 20% mortality was recorded after 60 min
