Fewer and smaller worms were recovered from, and significantly fewer parasite eggs were voided by, mice injected with mouse antiserum raised against N. brasiliensis or N. dubius after infection with the homologous nematode species compared with the control mice. The passive transfer of protective immunity was specific for the species which induced the antibody response in the donor mice. Passively immunized mice infected with the heterologous nematode species harbored the same number of worms, with the same egg output, as parasites in the control mice, but they were stunted. Serological cross-reactions were observed between the 2 donor antiserum pools and N. dubius and N. brasiliensis antigens.
