title: [Echinococcus multilocularis: superinfections in experimentally infected mice (author's transl)].
abstract: The influence of subcutaneous superinfections following an intraperitoneal primary infection after 4 and 14 weeks respectively has been examined in Echinococcus multiolcularis infected NMRI-mice. It could be shown that the growth of subcutaneous echinococci is inhibited in superinfected mice (372 mg) if compared with control mice (903 mg parasite weight). Other differences (composition of serum proteins and white blood cells, hemoglobin content) are exclusively due to the primary intraperitoneal infection.
