title: Indirect immunoperoxydase test in the serological diagnosis of urinary schistosomiasis.
abstract: The outcome of the indirect immunofluorescence test (IIF) and the indirect immunoperoxydase test (IIP) was compared in 60 serum samples of patients affected by haematobium schistosomiasis and in controls. There was a striking agreement (positive correlation in 86.6%). The IIP is a simpler and cheaper test than the IIF.
