| pubmed-article:7045959 | pubmed:abstractText | Sera from patients with urinary schistosomiasis were used to compare the sensitivity and specificity of the ELISA, IH and CIEP tests for the detection of antibodies to schistosomes. Sera from persons with parasitic infections other than schistosomiasis, and sera from healthy persons were used as negative controls. The ELISA test was more sensitive than the IH and CIEP, and slightly more specific than the CIEP. This simple test may be suitable for use in large seroepidemiological surveys. | lld:pubmed |
