Abstract
Studies on the production of reaginic antibodies in infections of Anisakis larvae in man, have shown that allergic reactions caused by infection of Anisakis larvae were due to Type-I allergic reactions in experimental animals [1], while larval re-infection was expected to induce an allergic especially Type-I reaction. Therefore the diagnosis of anisakiasis by enzyme-linked immnosorbent assay (ELISA) has used the values of IgE in patient sera.
