Haplorchis taichui: Worm recovery rate and immune responses in infected rats (Rattus norvegicus)
Worm recovery rate, mucosal mast cells (MMCs), eosinophils and serum IgE concentration in rats were investigated after orally feeding 300 Haplorchis taichui metacercariae to male rats. The duodenal, jejunal and ileal tissue sections were stained with 1% alcian blue and 0.5% safranin-O for MMC count....
