[Utilization of ELISA IgE method in diagnosis of Toxocariasis in humans]
1Zakład Parazytologii Lekarskiej PZH, Warszawa.
In order to improve the immunodiagnosis of toxocariasis, an immunoenzymatic assay (ELISA) with excretory-secretory antigens from Toxocara canis larvae was developed for the detection of specific immunoglobulin E. Titers of IgE were lower than those of IgG in the same samples, however IgE ELISA appeared to be more specific. IgE ELISA might be an interesting complementary method in the diagnosis of toxocariasis.
