Antibody response in cats vaccinated with cat flea recombinant proteins. Antibody levels were determined by ELISA in vaccinated and control cats against the recombinant F1 (a), F3 (b), F4 (c), F5 (d) or F6 (e) proteins used for vaccination. Serum samples were collected before first immunization (T1) and cat flea infestations (T3), and after adult flea counts at days 36–38 (T4). Antibody levels in vaccinated cats were expressed as the average ± SD. OD450nm (ODcat sera – ODPBS control) at 1:500 dilution of primary antibodies, and compared between vaccinated and control groups by ANOVA test (*P < 0.05; n = 3)
