Abstract:
Now schistosomiasis is still a serious zoonosis which affects human health and hinders the economy development in endemic areas. Accurate diagnosis of the infection of Schistosoma is very significant in reducing hazards to human health and controlling the epidemic of schistosomiasis. This review summarizes recent advances in the laboratory diagnostic methods for current schistosome infection (including pathogenic, immunologic and molecular biologic methods) so as to provide the reference for prevention and control of schistosomiasis in the field.
