Abstract:  Objective] To compare 2 kinds of ELISA methods for detecting circulating antigen in schistosomiasis patients. [Methods] Monoclonal antibody-based dot-ELISA and sandwich ELISA. [Results and Conclusion] The positive rates of dot-ELISA were higher than or similar to those of sandwich ELISA,the former being 48 0%~98 8% and the latter being 12 0%~93 8%. The specificities were 95 4%~100% and 90 0%, respectively.

Key words: schistosomia japonicum, circulating antigen, dot-ELISA, sandwich-ELISA
