THE BASIC IMMUNOLOGICAL STUDIES ON EXPERIMENTAL SCHISTOSOMIASIS JAPONICA
The Kurume Medical Journal, 1968 The rabbits were infected with about 500 cercariae of Schistosoma japonica. The localization, specificity, and change of the antigen antibody reaction in adult worm, ovum, and miracidium and granuloma with ova in the organs after infection of cercariae were observed by the direct and indirect fluorescent antibody technique.
