Specificity of the RAA assay in detecting various parasitic species

This figure illustrates the specificity of the RAA assay in detecting different parasite species. Notably, no fluorescence was observed in Schistosoma japonicum, Schistosoma mansoni, Ancylostoma duodenale, Clonorchis sinensis, Echinococcus granulosus, or Ascaris lumbricoides. In contrast, a noticeable increase in fluorescence that began within 5 min of the detection period was observed in S. haematobium. This highlights the ability of the assay to accurately differentiate and detect S. haematobium from other parasitic species.
