Characterization of body louse midgut proteins recognized by resistant hosts.
(1996)
The human body louse, Pediculus humanus, showed eighteen midgut proteins ranging between 12 and 117 kDa, when analysed by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. Seven of them (12 kDa, 17 kDa, 29 kDa, 35 kDa, 40 kDa, 55 kDa and 97 kDa) ...
Immunization of rabbits with faecal extract of Pediculus humanus, the human body louse: effects on louse development and reproduction
(1997)
Immunization of rabbits with a faecal extract of the human body louse (Pediculus humanus) induced a high titre of specific IgG. The mean weight of blood taken by females fed on the immunized rabbits was significantly lower ...
Temporal synthesis of cuticle proteins during larval development in Glossina morsitans
(1993)
Larval development in Glossina species occurs in utero with the mature third instar larva being deposited after a developmental period of 7 days. 2. In this study, the patterns of cuticular protein synthesis during larval ...
