Abstract
The UV-irradiated larvae ofAngiostrongylus cantonensis were used for inducing immunity in mice. A single oral dose of 100 infective UV-irradiated larvae exposed for 5 min or 15 min induced 91% and 97% protection against subsequent infection. Adoptive protection againstA. cantonensis could also be transferred by spleen and mesenteric lymph node cells obtained from vaccinated mice.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
