In an attempt to investigate the sensitivity of immunodiagnosis in @entity468 experimentally infected with @entity9642 , agar-gel precipitin reaction were studied. Metacercariae of @entity9642 were administered to @entity468 in various doses(2~100 metacercariae per cat) and antisera were obtained at an interval of a week. 1. Precipitin bands appeared in homologous antigen-antibody in experimental @entity9643 between 3 and 5 weeks after infection in all the @entity468 . 2. Almost all the cases in which a large number of worms were detected, showed strong reactions as revealed by deeply stained bands. 3. Precipitin reactions did not necessarily parallel with the number of worms detected. This may be attributable to the individual difference of a cat's conditions. 4. Very weak precipitin reactions were noticed between Clonorchis antigen and @entity9642 antisera of @entity468 , but no reactions were noticed between @entity9642 antigen and Clonorchis antisera of @entity468 or @entity95 .
