【 摘 要 】

The work undertaken in this thesis was designed to examine the antigenic nature of various stages of the abomasal parasite Haemonchus contortus. The parasitological and immunological responses of sheep "vaccinated" with surface and somatic proteins derived from third stage larvae and adult worms were also investigated.
