  • Title: Evaluation of two different antigens in immunodiagnosis of bancroftian filariasis using ELISA and IHAT.
    Author: el-Ganayni GA.
    Journal: J Egypt Soc Parasitol; 1992 Apr; 22(1):107-13. PubMed ID: 1578155.
    Abstract:
    Crude W. bancrofti microfilarial and L. carinii adult antigens were tried in ELISA and IHAT for immunodiagnosis of bancroftian filariasis. Both tests gave a higher positive reactions with microfilaraemic, clinical filariasis and endemic normal sera respectively. ELISA using W. bancrofti microfilarial antigen appears to be more sensitive.
