Fifty six patients with chronic Schistosomiasis japonica were given skin tests with preparations made of Schistosora mansoni and Schistosoma japonicum. There was a high, significant positive correlation between the results of both antigens. Among 47 serum samples tested with indirect hemagglutination (IHA) 27 had the antibody titer 1:16 or higher, which was diagnostically significant in combination with positive skin test results. The results indicate a definite cross reactivity of japonicum and mansoni anitgens in patients with Schistosomiasis japonica.
