Sera from cattle with single or mixed infections of Fasciola gigantica. Dicrocoelium hospes, Schistosoma bovis and paramphistomes were examined for fluorescent antibodies. Cross-reacting antibodies of the heterologous flukes were easily detected by using cryostat sections with whole-fluke-antigen of all three flukes. The presence of F. gigantica antibodies in a cattle herd was tested at two monthly intervals in order to establish the occurrence of chronic fascioliasis. The lack of significant differences in antibody levels of infected, treated and uninfected cattle however showed that herd antibody levels are not very useful to detect chronic Fasciola infections.
对感染了巨片形吸虫、霍氏双腔吸虫、牛血吸虫和前后盘吸虫单一感染或混合感染的牛的血清进行荧光抗体检测。使用这三种吸虫的全吸虫抗原冰冻切片，很容易检测到异源吸虫的交叉反应抗体。为了确定慢性片形吸虫病的发生情况，每隔两个月对牛群中巨片形吸虫抗体的存在情况进行检测。然而，感染、治疗和未感染牛的抗体水平没有显著差异，这表明群体抗体水平对于检测慢性片形吸虫感染并不是很有用。
