Concerned you or someone you know may be suffering from a parasitic infection? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Schistosoma IgG Antibody Test in Sunrise, FL. This test looks for antibodies to parasitic infection. Schistosomiasis, or bilharzia, is a disease caused by several species of parasitic worms, the most common of which is Schistosoma mansoni. Schistosome parasites are carried by snails that live in freshwater. The most common way that people are infected is by drinking, swimming, or bathing in contaminated water. Symptoms can develop as early as few days after infection. Common symptoms include rash, itchy skin, fever, chills, cough, and muscle aches. If left untreated, infections can cause damage to the liver, intestines, lungs, and bladder.
Schistosoma IgG antibody testing has a specificity of 99% and sensitivity of 96% for detecting infection with Schistosoma mansoni. The sensitivity for other species is lower, closer to 55%. While blood testing for Schistosoma antibodies can help to identify an infection, multiple tests on different specimen types are often necessary.
