Immune response in rabbits experimentally infected with Ascaris suum.
Immune response of rabbits experimentally infected with Ascaris suum was studied by indirect haemagglutination method. The animals were infected with the doses of 5,000, 10,000 and 20,000 infective eggs per animal. Positive reactions were observed from days 5-11 p.i., maximum reactions on days 11-19 p.i. A reinfection with the same doses (1x or 2x after 35 and 65 days) increased the antibody titre. The strongest individual reaction was recorded on day 19 p.i. in the group infected with the highest dose (titre 1 : 4096). The increased antibody titres persisted til the end of the experiment (82th day p.i.) in all groups.
