Abstract

9 groups of 6 female rats were used in an experiment using fraction 3 of Trypanosoma rhodesiense. 500 microgram gave 100% immunoprotection and 1000 and 1500 microgram gave 66% immunoprotection when challenged with 5 X 10(2) T.brucei. 2 groups of 10 female rats were tested for a short period inoculation immune response. In this, 750 microgram of fraction 3 of T.rhodesiense gave 70% immunoprotection when challenged with T.brucei.
