Abstract:
335 human sera of western Sicily were examined with an ELISA method for the prevalence of antibodies anti-Toxocara canis. The results (13% pos. in psychiatric patients,9.4% in farmers, 1.9% in children and 1.2% in blood donors) seem to indicate a strong correlation between style of life and infestation risk.
