  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We evaluated ToxocaraCHEK which detects the antibody specific for the antigen of the larvae of Toxocara canis. We tested 4 vitreous specimens and 12 serum samples from ocular toxocariasis by ToxocaraCHEK and ELISA. Nine vitreous specimens from eyes with uveitis or macular hole served as control. All the 4 vitreous specimens were positive for ToxocaraCHEK and ELISA. Both tests showed similar results regarding positive rate in serum samples. ToxocaraCHEK showed a higher pseudopositive rate and ELISA showed a higher pseudonegative rate. One case showed negative serum antibody and positive vitreous antibody. Both tests showed negative results in vitreal samples from the controls. The findings show that ToxocaraCHEK is as sensitive as ELISA and allows rapid and easy detection. Additional examination of vitreous specimen contributes to an more accurate diagnosis.
