Anti-Taenia solium monoclonal antibodies for the detection of parasite antigens in body fluids from patients with neurocysticercosis
(Elsevier, 2016)
Neurocysticercosis (NCC), an infection of the brain by Taenia solium (Ts) cysts, is the most common cause of adult-onset epilepsy in developing countries. Serological testing consists primarily of varying methods to detect ...
Toxocariasis: Serological diagnosis by indirect antibody competition elisa
(1999-12-01)
Toxocariasis is caused by infection of man by Toxocara canis and Toxocara, cati larvae, the common roundworm of dogs and cats. Because larvae are difficult to detect in tissues, diagnosis is mostly based on serology. Non ...
Sexual transmission of Toxoplasma gondii in sheep
(2013-07-01)
Male sheep of reproductive age were distributed into three groups: GI, a sheep inoculated (oral) with 2.0×105 oocysts of the P strain of Toxoplasma gondii; GII, a sheep infected (subcutaneous) with 1.0×106 tachyzoites of ...

Anti-Plasmodium falciparum invasion ligand antibodies in a low malaria transmission region, Loreto, Peru
(BioMed Central, 2012)
Background: Erythrocyte invasion by Plasmodium falciparum is a complex process that involves two families; Erythrocyte Binding-Like (EBL) and the Reticulocyte Binding-Like (PfRh) proteins. Antibodies that inhibit merozoite ...
Natural antibodies in paracoccidioidomycosis
(Soc Brasileira Microbiologia, 2004-01-01)
Recent attention has been focused oil the natural antibodies as a component of natural immunity and as integral part of the idiotypic network. However, their functional role in different infections has rarely been studied. ...
Malaria transmission structure in the Peruvian Amazon through antibody signatures to Plasmodium vivax
(Public Library of Science, 2022)
Background The landscape of malaria transmission in the Peruvian Amazon is temporally and spatially heterogeneous, presenting different micro-geographies with particular epidemiologies. Most cases are asymptomatic and ...
Asymptomatic dogs are highly competent to transmit Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi to the natural vector
(2013-09-23)
We evaluated the ability of dogs naturally infected with Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi to transfer the parasite to the vector and the factors associated with transmission. Thirty-eight infected dogs were confirmed ...
