Immunization and challenge of mice with insect-derived metacyclic trypomastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi.

abstract：:Two monoclonal antibodies against the surface of S. mansoni schistosomula were found to confer significant passive protection to mice (M7B3A, range 28-70%; M22H12C, range 14-58%). No additive effect was observed when both were transferred together. Neither McAb bound to the cercarial surface but both bound to the surf...
