Immunoassay with recombinant Trypanosoma cruzi antigens potentially useful for screening donated blood and diagnosing Chagas disease

A new enzyme immunoassay (EIA), the Dia Kit(TM) Bio-Chagas assay (Gador S.A.), is potentially useful for detecting antibodies to Trypanosoma cruzi in the diagnosis of infected individuals and the screening of blood in blood banks. The EIA is carried out on test strips of plastic backing covered with...
