Extract

Human anti-A and anti-B and pig anti-A agglutinins were neutralized by Ascaris lumbricoides materials.

The infection of pigs with A. lumbricoides stimulated the production of anti-A agglutinin but this agglutinin appeared to have no protective action.

Oesophagostomum dentatum infection in pigs did not affect the anti-A agglutinin levels.
