Depressed immunoconglutinin responses in calves experimentally infected with Trypanosoma congolense. Academic Article

abstract

• Contrary to expectation, immunoconglutinin levels failed to rise significantly in calves infected with Trypanosoma congolense. In addition, it was shown that trypanosome infection appeared to inhibit the immunoconglutinin response to Brucella abortus strain 19. The possible reasons for these findings are discussed.
