Abstract |
A model of hepatic amoebiasis in two inbred strains of mouse (Swiss and BALB/c, has been developed by introducing Entamoeba histolytica-infected hamster liver tissue in between the adjacent liver lobes of mouse. It is expected that this model might be useful in studying various parameters of host-parasitic interactions and experimental chemotherapy of amoebiasis with relative ease.
