Kenneth W Hunter Colleen L Cook Leishmania mexicana Crossed immunoelectrophoretic analysis of culturederived amastigotes and promastigotes Transactions of The Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene Volume 77 Issue 2 1983 Pages 177–180 https//doiorg/101016/0035920383900603An antigenic comparison was made of the two developmental stages of the agent of American cutaneous leishmaniasis Leishmania mexicana Culturederived promastigotes and amastigotes were used to immunize rabbits and the resulting hyperimmune sera employed in crossed immunoelectrophoresis Distinct antigenic similarities and differences were found and many of these protein antigens appeared to be surface membraneassociated
