ABSTRACT:
Two substantially purified larval T. solium antigens found circulating in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients infected with T. solium, having molecular weights of 190 KD and 230 KD, are disclosed. These antigens, alone or in combination, may be used to diagnose or to follow the course of neurocysticercosis, caused by T. solium infection.
