Changes in the white blood picture during experimental larval ascariasis, toxocariasis and toxascariasis
Abstract:
Haematological changes were studied in rabbits experimentally infected with different doses of Ascaris suum, Toxacara canis and Toxascaris leonina. The numbers of leucocytes, eosinophiles and neutrophiles were changed and the strongest eosinophila was observed between the 2nd and 3rd week of infection (5.2-7.1%). The intensity of reaction was not related to the used infection dose. The eosinophilia was always lower in toxocariasis and toxascariasis than in ascariasis at identical doses of infective material. Repeated infections resulted in an increase eosinophilia.
