Popis:	Rats were sensitised on days 0 and 12 by subcutaneous injection of Fasciola hepatica ova and/or the excretion/ secretion products obtained from in vitro maintained adult flukes and then challenged orally with 30 F. hepatica metacercariae on day 14. Worm burdens were determined 3 and 8 weeks after infection. No resistance to challenge infection was detected, but those fluke recovered from rats sensitised with excretion/secretion products were smaller than those from control groups.
