A vaccine containing doses ranging from 2 mu g to 50 mu g of integral membrane proteins from Haemonchus contortus intestinal cells (H11 and H-gal-GP complex) has been shown to be effective for lambs. A vaccine for H. contortus was tested in two-month old grazing Corriedale lambs during an eight-month trial on the outskirts of Bage, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The animals were kept in a single paddock and allocated to five similar groups according to weight, sex and faecal egg counts (FEC). Vaccinated lambs received 0, 2, 5, 10 or 50 mu g of the same antigen diluted in QuilA adjuvant. Vaccine injections were given at days 0, 21, 49, 91, 133, and 175. Lambs were sampled weekly for FEC, packed cell volume (PCV), and plasma ELISA antibody titre. Lambs with PCVs
