The efficacy of a kit of Opisthorchiasis-CIC-EIA-Best reagents was evaluated using 270 sera from patients in the study and control groups. The kit showed a sufficient sensitivity (not less than 87.2%) and a high specificity (not less than 97.9%). The use of the above kit of the reagents for enzyme immunoassay in practical healthcare enables one to increase detection rates among the infested subjects on comprehensive examination of those with suspected opisthorchiasis.
