    Abstract:
    The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and counter-immunoelectrophoresis (CIEP) were used to detect G. Lamblia Copro-antigens. Rabbit antisera raised against Giardia trophozoites and cysts were used as anti-Giardia antibodies. The overall sensitivity of the ELISA was 96.15% and its specificity was 93.48% in contrast to 69.23% and 82.61% for the CIEP.
