The lethal effect of soap on Schistosoma mansoni cercariae in water.

<h4>Background</h4>Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease which is spread through skin contact with water containing Schistosoma cercariae. Drug treatment has been the main control method, but it does not prevent reinfection. The use of soap can be a complementary measure to reduce trans...
