Table 1. Summary of B. malayi adult parasitology in gerbils, CB.17 SCID mice and BALB/c IL-4Rα^-/-IL-5^-/- mice.

Strain	% active infection (n)	Median % adult recovery of L3 inoculate (range, n)	% infections producing males (n)	Average ratio F:M
Gerbil	80.8 (105)	4% (0–32.5, 105)	65.4 (105)	1:0.65
CB.17 SCID	95.5 (88)	13% (0–49, 88)	92.1 (88)	1:0.35
IL4Rα -/- IL-5 -/-	95.9 (72)	12% (0–59.3, 72)	87.5 (72)	1:0.34

Adult parasitology summary between rodent strains and species detailing: 1. the percentage of active infections as a function of the total number of animals of that species/strain infected (the percentage of animals with parasites retrieved at necropsy), 2. the median percentage of adults recovered (males and females) as a function of the initial L3 inoculate, 3. the percentage of total infections producing males as opposed to female only infections, and the average ratio of females to males across infections.
