Comparison of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and indirect immunofluorescence assay in the diagnosis of human strongyloidiasis.
BACKGROUND An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) were evaluated for serological diagnosis of human strongyloidiasis. METHODS Serum specimens obtained from 46 individuals infected with Strongyloides stercoralis, 37 healthy persons and 381 persons with other parasitic infections were tested using an IgG-ELISA that used crude antigen of S. sterc...
متن کاملEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for immunological diagnosis of human tularemia.
The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied for immunological diagnosis of human tularemia, using lipopolysaccharide from Francisella tularensis as antigen. Sera collected from patients, healthy individuals, and vaccinated volunteers were investigated for antibodies against F. tularensis by ELISA and tube agglutination. In ELISA all sera were titrated with a polyspecific anti-immu...
متن کاملApplication of a modified human enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit for diagnosis of hydatidosis in sheep
Cystic hydatid disease (hydatidosis) is one of the most important zoonosis that is caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus . As its diagnosis by clinical symptoms alone is difficult and confusing, serologic diagnostic techniques are used to confirm the disease. These techniques can also be used for epidemiologic studies. The present study was performed with a commercial human en...
متن کاملIndirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for zygomycosis.
A 2-h indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using homogenate antigens of Rhizopus arrhizus and Rhizomucor pusillus was developed and compared with the existing immunodiffusion (ID) test for zygomycosis, using homogenate antigens of R. arrhizus. Utilizing 1:400 as a minimally positive ELISA titer, 33 of 43 proven cases of zygomycosis were diagnosed. The sensitivity of the ELISA was ...
متن کاملENZYME-LINKED IMMUNOSORBENT ASSAY OF NEOPTERIN USING PENICILLINASE AS LABEL
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for neopterin using penicillinase as marker enzyme is reported here by polyclonal antibodies against neopterin conjugated to bovine serum albumin which were raised in rabbits. Immunoglobulin fractions were purified and coated on wells of microtiter plates. A chain heterology was introduced in neopterin derivative and conjugated to penicillinase. The assa...
