Abstract
This study characterizes the peripheral blood, erythrocytic profile of mice experimentally infected per os with three different doses of Trichinella spiralis larvae. Such results have not been previously detailed despite reports of hemorrhagic episodes associated with the disease (Gould, S. E., 1970. In Trichinosis in man and animals, S. E. Gould (ed.). Charles C Thomas, Springfield, Illinois, pp. 269-328; Beck, J. W., and J. E. Davies, 1981. Medical parasitology. C. V. Mosby Company, St. Louis, Missouri, pp. 140-145). Sixty mice (10 to 12-wk-old, outbred CD1 females) were divided into three groups of 20. Group I was infected with 100 T. spiralis larvae, Group II with 500, and Group III with 1,000
