#9750 Trichinella spiralis
IgG ELISA
ELISA kit for the diagnosis of human trichinellosis
Parasitology and clinical relevance
Trichinellosis
is caused by Trichinella spiralis, a parasitic nematode of pork, horse
and wild animals. Humans can be infected by eating raw or undercooked meat from
infected animals. Most infected people do not show any symptoms. However, in
some cases, symptoms appear during intestinal stage (diarrhea and abdominal
pain<9 and muscular stage (muscle pain, fever, edema). Diagnosis is based
signs and symptoms, but,
in many cases it is not conclusive for the diagnosis. Serological assays
has an important place on the final diagnosis of the disease. Our ELISA kit have
shown appropriate performances for the serological screening of trichinellosis.
Test-Kit
96 determinations of IgG antibodies using standard methodologies.
Wells sensitized with E/S antigens from cultivated larvae of Trichinella
spiralis.
8-wells polystyrene breakable strips: useful and economic format for laboratories with a small workload.
CE registration: CH-202002-0011 |
Sensitivity and specificity
The test detects Trichinella
spiralis infections.
A sensitivity of 95%
was found with 55 sera from patients suffering from trichinellosis.
A specificity of 98% was
found with 149 sera of blood donors (Swiss).
A specificity
of 98% was
found with 100 sera from patients of an infectiology unit (Swiss).
A specificity of
90% was
found with 62 sera from trichinellosis suspected patients but where this
disease had been certainly ruled out.A specificity of 93%
was found with 45 sera of patients with other parasitic infections. |
