Response of outbred albino mice to concomitant , and infections.

To investigate the response of mice to concomitant infections with (), (Pb) and (Hb) infections. Each group of 6 mice was either infected with Pb + Tb + Hb, Pb + Tb, Pb + Hb, Tb + Hb, Pb, Tb, Hb or remained as uninfected controls. Hb infected mice each received 200 infective larvae (L3) of Hb orally, Tb infected mice each received 2 × 10 organisms through the intraperitoneal route while Pb infected mice received 1 × 10 parasitized red blood cells through the intraperitoneal route.
