Abstract

In the new research field of parasitology have started by knowing the different Physiology & Biochemical aspects of the parasite right from the beginning of the Twentieth Century. Helminth worms in general lead a parasitic mode of life. In Biochemical study of helminth worms or cestode, the percentage of protein, glycogen and lipid in the body of cestode investigated. The lipid contents of many tap worms have been investigated which varies from 3% to 6% of fresh weight of the parasite. The lipid content of the cestode parasite varies considerably from species to species. This is the study of Biochemical Distribution of lipid in the body of Cestode Lytocestus Ambae from a fresh water fish Clarias batrachus.
