A two for four incubation

Last week I set four small jars going, and today I gave them a look. Two of the jars were completely devoid of larvae. The other two were "B-" results, enough for inoculation but would require a fair amount of work collecting the larvae as the observed quantity was low. Think maybe 5% of best jars I've seen so far. I'm becoming convinced this is truly all about the quantity of eggs in the stool. If the colony is having an off day and not releasing many eggs, resulting incubations will alway

Rating of 4 jars for this incubation round

Yesterday I inoculated myself with 25 Necator americanus larvae from the small red jar. There were so many larvae, all I had to do was find a couple of drops that had the number of larvae I was looking for and pipette them onto the bandage. No messing with sucking up individual larvae and placing them in a tube. Much quicker, and why having a large crop is a good thing. Why choose the number 25? I didn't feel like bothering with more frequent inoculations, and 25 was as high as I was prepared to

This time, a big incubation success!

The temperature was cooler for a stretch here near Detroit, so a week ago I decided to have another crack at incubating. As luck would have it, a day after I set up my jars, the temperature shot right back up again. I don't have A/C in my apartment, so I figured I had just wasted my time, but this morning when I checked one of the small jars I found things were hopping! In just a couple of drops there were all the larvae I would need, bopping and weaving, looking healthy as all heck. I didn

Incubation failure

I followed the same technique I used last time that yielded such huge results, but this time basically I got zilch from two small jars. A few corpses and several uninspired zombie looking larvae moping around under my microscope's lens. Not enough to consider spending the time trying to get a harvest for an inoculation. The only thing different this round was the heat. It's been consistently over 30C in my non-air conditioned apartment this week. Damn global warming! Since I'm new at t

A huge failure and a huge success with hookworm incubation

I had an interesting experience today. I set up 3 practice jars 8 days ago. The first of the large jars was ok, maybe a little light in larvae. The second large jar was BARREN! I think I saw one larva in my sample. The third, small jar was a surprise though, it was booming! Squirming larvae hanging from the chandeliers, partying like it was 1999. Huge numbers. We're talking 12 larvae in a 40X field of view! Previously I think the record was maybe 4, and that was searching around to get thos

The crux of hookworm incubation

When I first got into hookworms to treat my several severe GI immune conditions, I was confused and filled with trepidation. Six years later, it all seems pretty simple, but I suppose perhaps everything is like that when you are starting out.  The first step is to purchase larvae from a provider listed in the Helminthic Therapy Wiki and when they arrive, slap them on your arm. Afterwards to save money, if you are into DIY, several months later you can start to incubate to provide your

I bought a doohickey to attach my cell phone to my microscope

It took watching a YouTube video to figure out how to use it, and it's a bit touchy, but it does allow me to take pics and video of what I see under the microscope. The device came from AliExpress and costs under $5.  Here's a video of a particularly active larva. Let me know in the comments if the link isn't working. This larva was from a recent incubation and examined at the 6-day mark. Between the two jars there were hundreds of larvae.

I started another couple of jars today

I was in a bit of a rush and didn't finesse the job as well as I would have liked. I ended up using too much stool in one jar and not enough on the other. The overweight one might tear through the threads and sink into the water, and the light one might not have enough stool to generate many larvae. This experience tells me there's some technique to this, and I'm thinking going forward I'll tape down the threads to the outside of jars before placing the stool on the filter and then pipette water

      GLUTEN EASE TABLETS DONT WORK

       

      "Vitamin D, as an immune modulator, is known to regulate immune response and maybe implicated in disease pathogenesis or susceptibility of celiac disease. Components of the immune system, such as B-lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes, and dendritic cells, are influenced by the regulatory effects of Vitamin D ... Increasing evidence also suggests that Vitamin D deficiency increases the risk and worsens the outcome of extraskeletal diseases such as cancer, irritable bowel syndrome, and inflammatory bowel disease ... Previous studies have shown that vitamin D levels in the celiac disease group are negatively correlated with symptom severity, which means the lower the vitamin D levels, the more severe the symptoms of celiac disease patients. Vitamin D deficiency is associated with reduced expression of the Vitamin D receptor and epithelial barrier proteins E-cadherin and claudin-2. "  https://bmcpediatr.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12887-024-04688-0#:~:text=However%2C celiac disease occurs only in,newly diagnosed celiac disease [19].
