Context: Laboratory diagnosis of strongyloidiasis is most often based on the detection antibodies against antigens in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Aims: The aim study was to validate efficacy B-cell epitope peptide fatty acid and retinal binding protein using Strongyloides stercoralis . Settings Design: Patient samples were identified by anonymous code collected from volunteers at Suranaree University Technology Hospital, Thailand. Subjects Methods: synthesized peptides cell...
Background Many strategies to control opisthorchiasis have been employed in Thailand, but not the other neighbouring countries. Specific methods include mass drug administration (MDA) and health education reduce raw fish consumption. These efforts greatly shifted epidemiology of Opisthorchis viverrini (OV) infection over last decade from presenting as densely concentrated "heavy" infections single villages widespread "light" OV distributed wide geographical areas. Currently, "gold standard"...
Abstract Background Helminth infection is a global health issue that not only causes acute helminthiasis but long-term may lead to complicated symptoms as well severe complications. The World Health Organization cooperated with the Ministry of Public in many countries, particularly where high prevalence, spending lot resources for limiting infection. In Thailand, incidence parasitic helminth infections was continuously declined last few decades according several campaigns elimination....
Abstract Background Control and elimination of the liver fluke ( Opisthorchis viverrini ) is a primary preventive strategy against cholangiocarcinoma in Southeast Asia. A sensitive parasitological diagnostic method required to facilitate surveillance control program. In this study, we evaluated performance Mini Parasep ® SF stool concentrator kit (stool kit) compared with Kato-Katz (KK) quantitative formalin-ethyl acetate concentration technique (FECT) for detection O. co-endemic parasitic...
To combat and eventually eliminate the transmission of liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini, an accurate practical diagnostic test is required. A recently established urine antigen detection using monoclonal antibody-based enzyme-linked-immunosorbent assay (mAb-ELISA) has shown promise due to its high accuracy use in place fecal samples. further utility this assay, we performed a cross sectional study 1,043 people 3 opisthorchiasis endemic communities northeast Thailand by applying together...
The diagnosis of strongyloidiasis by coprological methods has a low sensitivity, underestimating the prevalence Strongyloides stercoralis in endemic areas. Serodiagnostic tests for have shown robust diagnostic properties. However, these require blood draw, an invasive and labor-intensive sample collection method, especially resource-limited settings where S. is endemic. Our study examines urine-based assay compares its accuracy with serological methods. Receiver operating characteristic...
Background and Aim: Gastrointestinal (GI) nematode infection remains an important problem in livestock, particularly cattle. The may lead to serious health complications affect animal products. objective of this study was investigate GI its associated risk factors dairy beef cattle farmed Pak Chong District Nakhon Ratchasima Province, northeast Thailand. Materials Methods: Fecal specimens were collected from 101 100 Formalin-ethyl acetate concentration techniques used process the samples...
To evaluate the accuracy and reliability of urine assay for diagnosis strongyloidiasis, three different immunoassays were used to assess diagnostic anti- Strongyloides immunoglobulin G (IgG) in compared with those serum samples. Analyses by InBios enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISA) kit (recombinant NIE antigen), SciMedx ELISA ( stercoralis our in-house ratti antigen) yielded comparable performances between assays. Levels -specific IgG significantly correlated serum. Tests agreement assays...
A urine antigen assay was applied to evaluate chemotherapeutic outcomes and reinfection patterns of opisthorchiasis in Thailand.We used a prospective study design by following subjects at baseline post-treatment using faecal examination the formalin-ethyl acetate concentration technique (FECT).The Opisthorchis viverrini diminished within 4 weeks after praziquantel treatment. Concurrent examinations FECT showed that eggs were negative In subsequent study, rates intensity O. evaluated 48...
Antigen detection in urine using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is more sensitive than fecal examination for diagnosis of opisthorchiasis and assessment the effects drug treatment. It not known whether day-to-day variation composition, including levels Opisthorchis viverrini antigen, influences assay. We investigated this topic with cooperation participants from two localities Northeast Thailand. Project were screened parasite infections three consecutive days quantitative...
Antigen detected in urine for the diagnosis of opisthorchiasis has a low daily variation; however, longer term variability antigen concentrations is unknown. In this study, we prospectively monitored Opisthorchis viverrini 30 consecutive days and at subsequent monthly intervals cohort opisthorchiasis-positive individuals. On basis monoclonal antibody-based ELISA, profiles antigen-positive rate concentration exhibited no significant change over with mean proportion positive 87.1% (range...
Previous studies demonstrated that urinary 8-oxodG is a predictive biomarker for Opisthorchis viverrini (OV)-associated hepatobiliary disease (HBD) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). This study examined the effects of praziquantel treatment on profile in relation to HBD status. Infection with OV, levels 8-oxodG, status terms periductal fibrosis (PDF) assessed by abdominal ultrasonography (US) were monitored compared cohorts participants Khon Kaen, Thailand, before 1 year after treatment. Urinary...

The well-characterized edible and medicinal bamboo mushroom is Phallus indusiatus , a Chinese with long white indusium (skirt). To date, scientists have found more than five species of mushrooms in Thailand, containing white, short several colored skirts. Still, most them are unidentified lack metabolic profile data. Hence, this study aims to evaluate the white-skirt mushroom-like (CH-isolate) (TH-isolate) isolated from local farm northern Thailand. External morphology molecular...
