The genetic control of host responses to Dipetalonema viteae (Filarioidea) infections in mice [PDF]
Summary Dipetalonema viteae (Filarioidea) infections were established in inbred strains of mice by the s. c. implantation of adult female worms and the resulting microfilaraemia and adult worm survival monitored. BALB/c mice were the most susceptible strain examined, showing a high level microfilaraemia of approximately 6 month's duration.
