## Abstract “Malic” enzyme and fumarate reductase activities have been demonstrated and partially characterized in mitochondria from the adult cestode __Spirometra mansonoides__. The former enzyme requires Mn^++^ and NAD^+^ for optimal activity, but also couples with NADP^+^ at approximately 60% of
The specific activities of the alkaline phosphatase (APase), type I phosphodiesterase and 5'-nucleotidase activities associated with the brush-border plasma membrane of the tapeworm, Hymenolepis diminuta, decrease significantly as the tapeworm grows and matures. Kinetic analyses of the APase activit
