Background A monoclonal antibody would be an effective tool for the detection of circulating antigens in the serum of patients with schistosomiasis, but the traditional way of producing monoclonal antibodies is not c...
Soluble male worm antigen of Schistosoma japonicum ( Sj ) was investigated for development of new vaccine candidate. SDS-PAGE and Western blotting were performed to compare the difference between soluble antigens from...
