Correlation between the degree of protection and induced serum antibody response in hamsters immunized with somatic and excretory-secretory (ES) antigens of adult. A. ceylanicum was investigated. Hamsters were immunized with non purified and Sephadex G-200 fractions (F1, F2 and F3) of somatic and ES antigens. The degree of protection was assessed in terms of percent worm reduction compared to controls against challenge infection. Induced humoral antibody response was determined by ELISA. Both somatic and ES antigens had shown moderate to significant protection but the latter was found more immunogenic as highest level of protection (67.02%) was achieved by these antigens. Humoral antibody was found highly elevated in animals immunized with protective doses of somatic and ES antigens. The maximum serum antibody titer i.e. 1:3200 was noticed in animals immunized with high protective dose (64.59% protection) of fraction F1 of ES antigens. Antibody titer correspond to the degree of protection and a positive correlation between induced humoral antibodies and protection level was established.
