Assay validation study: western blot (Wb) and SDS-PAGE of excretory/secretory antigens from Trichinella spiralis (T_ESA) and from Toxocara canis (Tox_ESA). a. Lanes 1 and 2, T_ESA blotted with two serum samples from T. spiralis infected dogs. Lane 3, T_ESA blotted with a serum sample from a Trichinella-free dog. Lanes 4 and 5, T_ESA blotted with the serum samples from two T. canis infected dogs. Lane 6, Tox_ESA blotted with a serum sample from a T. canis uninfected dog; Lane 7, Tox_ESA blotted with a serum sample from a T. canis infected dog; Mw, molecular weight markers. b. Ten percent SDS-PAGE of T_ESA (Lane 1) and Tox_ESA (Lane 2) stained with Coomassie Blue; Mw, molecular weight markers
