IgE responses to Fasciola hepatica extract in several inbred mouse strains.
IgE responses to Fasciola hepatica extract in 6 strains of mice (C3H/HeN, CBA/JN, DBA/2N, BALB/cAnN, C57BL/6N and NZBWF1) were investigated. Serum anti-F. hepatica IgE antibodies were determined by passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA). DBA/2N and BALB/cAnN mice showed higher IgE responses than other strains.
