Study

name:	Use of a pre-selected epitope of cathepsin-L1 in a highly specific peptide-based immunoassay for the diagnosis of Fasciola hepatica infections in cattle.
description:	Sera from calves infected with Fasciola hepatica recognized the epitope by ELISA. However, sera from calves mono-infected with Dictyocaulus viviparus, Ostertagia ostertagi, Ascaris suum, Nematodirus helvetianus, Cooperia oncophora, Taenia saginata or Schistosoma matheei did not recognize the epitope.
