  • Title: Infection intensity and specific antibody response in schistosomiasis.
    Author: Terpstra WJ, Van Helden HP, Nkya WM, Eyakuze VM.
    Journal: Bull Soc Pathol Exot Filiales; 1980; 73(2):164-71. PubMed ID: 7006838.
    Abstract:
    The antibody titres in hamsters that were experimentally infected and in humans that were naturally infected with S. mansoni or S. haematobium were determined with the IFAT. The infection intensity was measured directly in the hamsters by counting the worms collected after perfusion and indirectly in humans by counting the eggs in faeces or in urine. In general antibody titre reflected infection intensity.
