Abstract
Two surface antigens of Eimeria nieschulzi merozoites were characteriz ed by monoclonal antibodies (Mcab) as follows: an antigen of 31 (reduc ing conditions), 25 and 31 kDa (nonreducing conditions), by Mcab A1F6; and an antigen of 52 and 30 kDa (reducing conditions) or 42 kDa (nonr educing conditions), by Mcab H7. The localization of the antigens in f luorescence and electron micrographs is presented. Despite being acces sible to antibodies on live (nonpermeabilized) parasites, neither anti gens were significantly labelled using lactoperoxidase radioiodination .
