title: [Indirect immunofluorescence in onchocerciasis in Mali: comparison of O. volvulus antigen and D. viteae antigen for detecting circulating antibodies].
abstract: In Mali, a comparative study of O. volvulus and D. viteae filariasis antigens was made on 52 onchocerciasis sera with immunofluorescence immunoassay. At a dilution greater than 1/40, 34 sera are positive with homologous Ag against 24 with heterologous Ag.
