ELISA results from cattle vaccination trials using recombinant expressed fragment of RmAQP1. Relative readings from ELISAs are plotted against trial day number for both the cattle group vaccinated with the recombinant expressed fragment of RmAQP1 in PBS plus adjuvant (dashed line and triangles) and the control group vaccinated with PBS plus adjuvant (solid line and circles). Blood was drawn on days 1, 7, 14, 21, 31, 41, 55, 62, 69, and 114 of the test. Three arrows indicate the days of the initial vaccination and the two boosters. The day of larval infestation is noted by an arrow with asterisk.
