Diagnosis of bilharziasis (S. haematobium and S. mansoni) by the ELISA using the homologous antigen.
Sera of subjects with S. haematobium, S. mansoni and mixed infection were studied by the ELISA by means of homologous antigens. The extinction values for S. haematobium and S. mansoni cases were higher with the homologous antigen. Generally, S. haematobium cases were less reactive than S. mansoni or mixed infection.
