Figure Lengend Snippet: Morphological alterations of E. granulosus protoscolices after 1 h incubation with different doses of fluralaner, stained with H & E. a–c Examples of control PSCs; showed normal intact PSCs, with visible hooks and calcareous corpuscles (Cr). d–f Treated PSCs with 12.5 ug/ml; showed vacuoles formation, multiple deformities (arrow). G-I: Treated PSCs with 100 ug/ml; showed detachment of cuticle (de) and complete loss of integrity (loss of hooks, scolex, and suction cup) (× 400)
