From a panel of mouse monoclonal antibodies reactive with a repeating epitope of the schistosome circulating anodic antigen, an IgG1 monoclonal antibody was selected. This monoclonal antibody was applied in a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay as capture antibody and as alkaline phosphatase labeled conjugate. This assay allowed a sensitive quantitation of circulating anodic antigen in serum samples of infected individuals, detecting less than 1 ng antigen/ml serum. In Schistosoma mansoni infected individuals from Zaire, the level of antigen in serum correlated with fecal egg output. The lower detection level of the immunoassay corresponded to a level of about 10 eggs/gm feces.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
