Evaluation of the Indirect Fluorescent Antibody Test with Adult Worm Antigen for the Immunodiagnosis of Clonorchiasis.

摘要

The indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) test in the present study was developed by using delipidized adult Clonorchis sinensis particles as antigen fixed on microscope slide. The technic for preparation of antigen was based on the method for serodiagnosis of schistosomiasis (Camargo et al., 1966) with minor modifications. Human sera from 38 cases of proven clonorchiasis, 91 cases of other parasitic diseases, 21 cases of parasites-negative liver diseases and 9 healthy controls were tested for the evaluation of this method.
