description | Trichinellosis is a parasitic disease of humans caused by the nematode from
the genus Trichinella, predominantly Trichinella spiralis (T. spiralis). If
Trichinella infection is suspected, based on epidemiological link and
clinical criteria within defined period of time, then finding of
Trichinella-specific antibodies in the examined sera provides a definitive
proof of the infection establishment. Detection of Trichinella-specific IgE
that could precede, coincide or follow IgG seroconversion not only confirms
the infection existence, but could narrow the time frame in which the
infection took place to a year or even less. Since there are no commercially
available tests for monitoring the Trichinella-specific IgE presence during
the course of the disease, our work was aimed to establish this kind of ELISA
test. Specificity and sensitivity of so far described Trichinella-specific
IgE ELISAs are not satisfying enough; two major problems are poor
discrimination between positive and negative results and cross reactivity
with sera of patients with different parasitic diseases. In this study, we
have developed Trichinella-specific IgE Capture ELISA that overcomes problems
with specificity and sensitivity and enables determination of
Trichinella-specific IgE. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br.
