Clonorchiasis in bone marrow transplant recipients [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Among 380 bone marrow transplant (BMT) recipients, five cases (1.3%) of clonorchiasis were observed from 1991 to 1996. Clonorchis sinensis infection was evident in the results of stool examinations performed for screening purposes 7 days before bone ...

Organ-specific antigens of Clonorchis sinensis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2004
This study was carried out to find out specific proteins from different organs of Clonorchis sinensis. Crude extract, organ-specific and excretory-secretory (ES) proteins were analyzed by immunoblot with infected human sera. The bands of 7- and 17-kDa were main component of intestinal fluid and ES protein and commonly found in all organspecific ...
