“…17 The MBA technique was selected because of its proven performance, its conservation of serum specimens (only 125 nL/well) and its relatively low labor and low cost, about $100 per plate per 10-plex assay, excluding labor and cost of antigens. 16 Here, we report IgG responses from these children to the recombinant E. histolytica lectin adhesion antigen (LecA), to the recombinant C. parvum antigens 17-and 27-kDa (Cry17 and Cry27) from invasive sporozoites, to the glutathione-S-transferase (GST) from Schistosoma japonicum, a control antigen that elicits no appreciable human IgG activity even in persons infected with S. japonicum (personal observation), and to five recombinant variant-specific surface proteins (VSP1-VSP5) from G. intestinalis. For comparison, IgG responses to these antigens from adult Haitian individuals were also examined.…”
