title: Weight loss, total and differential leucocytic counts in mice treated with alcohol during Ancylostoma caninum infection.
abstract: Females of Swiss albino mice were treated with various doses of alcohol and Ancylostoma caninum larvae. Mice which received 40% alcohol for 20 days showed a significant decrease in body weight and in the number of leucocytes. Eosinophilia was also observed in mice which were treated with 40% alcohol for 20 days.
