INDIRECT ELISA- ITS COMPARATIVE USEFULNESS OVER DOUBLE DIFFUSLON AS AN IMMUNOLOGICAL TOOL TO DETECTHUMORAL ANTI ODY RESPONSE AGAINST SOME ASPERGILLUS ANTIGENS IN IMMUNOSUPPRESED CANCER PATIENTS

KARUNA S. VERMA AND VIDHAN JAIN

Abstract

Aspergillosis is considered to be second only to candidiasis in the frequency of mycosis among cancer patients. Serology is often required to make perfect diagnose about tungal mycosis. In this short study patient's immunological response has been checked by indirect ELISA and double diffusion (DD) method against fungal antigens of Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus flaws and Aspergillus niger. Indirect ELISA has been found more sensitive than DD in-detecting possible aspergillosis among immunosuppresed cancer patients.
