title: Immunization against experimental visceral toxocariasis canis.
abstract: Immunization of rabbits against visceral toxocariasis using T. canis larval glycoproteins showed a marked reduction in the larvae burden and a significant rise of serum IgE in immunized rabbits infected with Toxocara canis as compared with non-immunized infected control group. More reduction of larval burden was observed after larger doses of T. canis larvated eggs inoculation.
