Preliminary studies on the application of enzyme immunoassay in the detection of antibodies in onchocerciasis

Abstract

Preliminary enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with serum from a patient with onchoceriasis revealed extensive cross-reactions with various nematode antigens. Further tests on a batch of sera from people with proven O. volvulus infections using O. gutturosa antigen, showed that almost all the sera gave higher ELISA values than did control African sera.
