Evaluation of banked urine samples for the detection of circulating anodic and cathodic antigens in Schistosoma mekongi and S. japonicum infections: A proof-of-concept study

A proof-of-concept study is presented with banked urine samples from Cambodia and the Philippines, using an upconverted phosphor lateral flow circulating anodic antigen (UCP-LF CAA) assay and the point-of-care circulating cathodic antigen (POC-CCA) for diagnosis of Schistosoma mekongi and S. japonicum.
