Neutralization of Cryptosporidium muris Sporozoites by Rabbit Anti-C. muris Serum.

Abstract

The neutralization of Cryptosporidium muris sporozoites by rabbit antiserum was examined in vitro and in mice. The sporozoites of C. muris could be separated from intact oocysts by repeated were first detected 6 days later. The results suggest that the antiserum partially neutralizes the infectivity of C. muris sporozoites.
