| studies of angiostrongylus cantonensis in two experimental hosts. | lung infection with angiostrongylus cantonensis was established in experimentally infected indian soft-furred rats (millardia meltada) and indian spiny mice (mus platythrix). pulmonary arterial migration occurred earlier (at day 20 after infection) in m. meltada than in wistar rats. m. meltada and m. platythrix could serve as useful animal models for comparative studies of mechanisms determining host specificity of a. cantonensis. | 1984 | 6501859 |
