Inhibition of Entamoeba histolytica in vitro by specific antibody*
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 April 2009
Extract
Bacteria-free cultures of E. histolytica have been inhibited by specific and related antibodies in the antisera produced in rabbits. Maximal culture-inhibiting antibodies were produced when the rabbits were immunized with frozen and thawed, formalin-treated trophozoites injected intravenously. Human sera from subjects with current or past histories of amoebiasis also inhibited growth of amoebae in vitro.
