Western blot results of BmSXP recombinant antigen probed with various serum samples. The following serum samples were employed as primary antibodies: Lane 1: Serum from a W. bancrofti mf+ patient (India). 2: Serum from a W. bancrofti mf+ patient (Indonesia). 3: Serum from an ameobiasis patient. 4: Serum from a patient with Ascaris lumbricoides. 5: Serum from a patient with Trichuris trichiura. 6: Serum from a normal individual from filaria endemic area. 7: Serum from a normal individual from a non-endemic area. M: Low molecular weight marker (Fermentas). *: ~24.7 kDa BmSXP recombinant protein
