Regulan Bloodworms

These “soft and shapeless” creatures[1] were very useful for filtering toxins from humanoids. Dr. Phlox carried a supply aboard the Enterprise NX-01, but he preferred the fresh ones from Regulus. When Travis Mayweather was given an antigenic compound that caused a bad reaction, Phlox suggested using blood worms to filter out the toxins.[2]
