Abstract
An ELISA assay was designed to detect the presence of parasite related antigens associated with circulating immune complexes in patients affected by urinary schistosomiasis. The assay makes use of bovine conglutinin as the immune complex recognition unit and of human anti- Schistosoma antibody as the antigen recognition unit. Using this method we showed that 10 of 15 (67%) patients with a positive polyethylene glycol assay had circulating immune complexes in which parasite antigens could be detected.
