Whole sheep hydatid cyst fluid (WHF) and purified hydatid fluid antigens (PHF) were evaluated in the immunoelectrophoresis (IEP) test for the diagnosis of human hydatid disease. A higher sensitivity was obtained using the PHF than with the WHF antigen but false positive results were observed with the former in 22.4% of the 102 non-hydatid sera examined. Using the presence of arc 5 as the criterion of positivity however, no false positives were observed in non-hydatid sera with the WHF antigen. It is postulated that the number of bands other than arc 5 may be of value in the diagnosis of hydatid disease by the IEP test, in cases where this diagnostic arc is absent.
对全羊包虫囊肿液(WHF)和纯化的包虫液抗原(PHF)进行了免疫电泳(IEP)试验,以诊断人类包虫病。与WHF抗原相比,使用PHF获得了更高的灵敏度,但在检测的102份非包虫血清中,有22.4%的血清出现了前者的假阳性结果。然而,以弧5的存在作为阳性标准,使用WHF抗原时在非包虫血清中未观察到假阳性。据推测,在没有这种诊断性弧的情况下,IEP试验中除弧5以外的条带数量可能对包虫病的诊断有价值。
