Cry5B treatment reduces clinical sequelae of hookworm infection as measured by weight gain (Upper) and blood hemoglobin (Lower). Hamsters were infected with 150 A. ceylanicum L3 on day 0 and treated with Cry5B (Left) or mebendazole (Right) on days 14, 15, and 16 PI as indicated by open arrowheads. All values are the means ± SE. Asterisks indicate statistical significance vs. the infected control group. For numerical values, see Results.
