| Abstract: | Activated oncospheres of T. hydatigena within filtration membrane diffusion chambers implanted intraperitoneally into dogs developed into larvae 3 mm in dia possessing a scolex anlage without hooks. Exogenous antigens released by developing T. hydatigena larvae failed to stimulate any measurable resistance in the dogs to challenge infection with E. granulosus protoscolices. |
