Comparison of PCR, Isoenzyme Analysis, and Antigen Detection for Diagnosis of <i>Entamoeba histolytica</i> Infection

1 Feb 1998

Abstract excerpt

The diagnosis of amebiasis by microscopic identification of the parasite in stool is insensitive and unable to distinguish the invasive parasite Entamoeba histolytica from the commensal parasite E. dispar. In this study, we have tested a PCR technique for the detection of E. histolytica and compared it with isoenzyme analysis and the TechLab E. histolytica-specific antigen detection test. The nested-PCR test we...
