Abstract excerpt
Primary-infected swine lymphocyte antigen (SLA) inbred miniature swine, NIH minipigs, of the SLAa/a haplotype (aa) display markedly reduced Trichinella spiralis-encysted muscle larval (ML) burdens 6 weeks after homologous challenge and are therefore referred to as responders against encysted T. s...
