Enhancement of antibody production against sheep erythrocytes using Theileria sergenti lysate antigen in different strains of inbred mice.

Abstract
Adjuvant effect for antibody production was observed in different strains of mice sensitized with Theileria sergenti lysate antigen and sheep erythrocytes. By means of an improved Jerne''s plaque assay the adjuvant effect was evaluated in the number of plaques as well as in the size of plaque. RR and C3H/He mice responded more efficiently than NC and C57BL/6 mice. C3H/He male mice responded more efficiently than C3H/He female mice.
