title: Protein composition of various developmental stages of dipetalonema viteae (Filarioidea).
abstract: The protein composition of various developmental stages of Dipetalonema viteae was analysed on polyacrylamide slab gels in the presence of sodium-dodecylsulphate. When the total proteins of adult male and female parasites, microfilariae, eggs, and third-stage larvae were compared, apparent qualitative similarities between mature and immature filariae were observed. However, several stage specific components were also identified.
