AB - <p>Mycobacterium leprae infection was produced through the footpads in normal and immunosuppressed mice. Circulating immune complexes were detected by specific binding test and by conglutinin binding assay for specific and total immune complexes respectively in the sera of these mice during different periods of infection. Out of the total 30 samples tested from the infected groups, 3 were positive by specific binding test and 5 by conglutinin binding ELISA. The implications of the findings in relation to human leprosy are discussed.</p>
