Both humoral and cellular immune response during experimental toxoplasmosis of rabbits were studied in different stages of pregnancy. The application of different schemes of immunization made possible to detect immunological phenomena in particular stage of development depending on foetus evolution....

Summary:Both humoral and cellular immune response during experimental toxoplasmosis of rabbits were studied in different stages of pregnancy. The application of different schemes of immunization made possible to detect immunological phenomena in particular stage of development depending on foetus evolution. The research conducted so far, has demonstrated no significant protective influence of humoral as well as cellular resistance to foetus infection of mothers acute infection.
