Reduction In the Number of Adult Trichinella spiralis in Rats After Treatment with Naphthoquinones.

Abstract
Oral admn. of 2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone and 2-hydroxy-3-piperidinomethyl-1,4-naphthoquinone to rats infected with I. spiralis produced a significant reduction in the number of intestinal adult trichinellae. Nine other structurally related naphthoquinones had no such effect.
