title: [Progress of researches on diagnostic antigens of schistosomiasis japonica].
abstract: The development of immunodiagnosis makes important contributions to the control of schistosomiasis. The most common way of diagnosis is to detect unknown antibodies through the known antigens, those are divided into soluble antigens, purified antigens and recombinant antigens. The diagnostic antigens which have high-sensitivity and high-specificity, and have the value of early diagnosis become the focus of researches, and are studied by many scholars. This article reviews the progress of the reaearches on diagnostic antigens of schistosomiasis japonica in recent years.
