We describe a dot enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (dot-ELISA) as a field applicable tool for the rapid diagnosis of schistosomiasis. This antibody capture assay is performed using 50 ng protein of crude Schistosoma mansoni egg antigen (SEA) in 1 microliter volumes per dot. Sera (1 microliter/dot) at 1:40 dilution were optimal. Dot-ELISA results were completely comparable to micro-ELISA.
