title: Isolation of specific antigens from Angiostrongylus cantonensis. 2. By affinity chromatography.
abstract: The crude adult worm extract of Angiostrongylus cantonensis was subjected to a series of affinity chromatography for selective removal of host antigens as well as cross-reactive components with other helminths. The purified fraction designated as AC(p) with molecular weights ranging from 10,000-42,000 was found to contain antigenic components specific to A. cantonensis as determined by immunoelectrophoresis and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
