Detection of antigens and anti ‐Toxocara canis antibodies in children with different asthma severities

ConclusionIt is possible to detect L3TES in patients with asthma. Two complementary techniques that can determine the infection status withT. canis and rule out cross ‐reactions involve the detection of L3TES and IgG using sera preadsorbed withAscaris antigen. There was no significant association among asthma severity, ACQ andT. canis seroprevalence.
