The previously shown antigenicity of Schistosoma mansoni (JL venezuelan strain) alkaline phosphatase (Mg2+, pH 9.5) allowed its use in an immunodiagnosis assay, that consisted in the immunoadsorption of the enzymatic activity. Protein-A coated polyvinyl plates were used as solid phase to capture IgG
The alkaline phosphatase immunoassay (APIA) is an antibody detection technique which permits the diagnosis of schistosomiasis using a butanolic extract preparation from adult worms. APIA has demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity in previous reports with well characterized human sera. Its
Extraction of alkaline phosphatase (AP) from the tissues of small intestines of mice experimentally infected with the Egyptian strain of S. mansoni before and after oltipraz treatment was carried out. The drug was given in a single oral dose of 500 mg/kg body weight. The results obtained revealed
Biochemical estimation of alkaline phosphatase (AP) in livers of mice experimentally infected with the Egyptian strain of S. mansoni before and after oltipraz treatment was carried out. The drug was given in a single oral dose of 500 mg/kg body weight. The results revealed that the drug led to
Low and very-low intensities of infection hinder the diagnosis of schistosomiasis. Therefore, new parameters should be established in order to more accurately identify active cases and true infection prevalence, for the adequate implementation of a control program. After the survey and analysis of
Schistosomiasis is a human parasitic disease caused by flatworms of the genus Schistosoma. Adult female schistosomes produce numerous eggs that are responsible for the pathogenesis and transmission of the disease, and the maturation of female gonads depends on the permanent pairing of females and
The study assessed changes in fasting serum gastrin level in early schistosomiasis and chronic fascioliasis in 52 patients. Forty patients had either schistosomiasis or fascioliasis alone. Twelve patients had combined infection with both parasitosis. Also, ten healthy parasite free individuals were
Earlier work has shown that penicillamine reduces the acute toxicity of antimonyl potassium tartrate (APT) as well as the abnormal ECG changes it induces. In the present study, the possible protective effect of penicillamine on the hepatic toxicity of APT was investigated. Tests of liver function
OBJECTIVE
To explore the correlation between the levels of liver fibrosis and liver fibrosis biochemical parameters of advanced schistosomiasis patients.
METHODS
A total of 48 advanced schistosomiasis patients were investigated and they were examined by the liver biopsy and B ultrasound imaging. At
With Hyroxylapatite purified preparations and BACH (biotin aminocapryl hydrazide) biotinylated McAbs, 274-2H10 and 273-2H1, recognizing different egg-associated epitopes, biotin-avidin (BA) involved alkaline phosphatase (AP) ELISA with detecting sensitivities reaching nanogram levels (10(-9), were
