Hypersensitivity to dietary components in young farm animals: immunisation of calves for IgE antibody responses.
An immunisation schedule is described that reproducibly induces long latent period skin sensitising antibody (immunoglobulin) in calves by a combined oral/parenteral route. This response is only directed towards the protein component of the antigen and is boosted upon challenge injection.
