Abstract
Ducklings were successfully immunized against Plasmodium lophurae with a purified and characterized histidine-rich protein as antigen. The use of adjuvant is not required for this protective effect, and immunity can be passively transferred with serum.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
