Summary
A peptide antigen (FPT) was prepared from the adult of Dirofilaria immitis by Yamamura-Morizawa's method which has been applied to the preparation of tuberculin peptide as shown
in Table 1. Antigen solution diluted with physiological saline solution to 1: 10,000 was
injected intradermally, just sufficient to arise a wheal of about 3.0mm diameter. Intensity
of the reaction was reflected by the increase of diameter of the wheal within 15 minutes
after injection.Intradermal test was conducted on 541 microfilaria carriers and on 269 control individuals
who were considered free from filarial infection.
Distribution curve of diameter of wheal in the microfilaria carriers showed a normal curve
with the park in the larger side, about 9.0mm. In the control group, neverthless, it ranged
from 0 to 5.0mm showing the peak in the smallest side which resembled the reaction to saline
solution tested on the population of a endemic area. There was found a close corelation
between the increase of wheal and surrounding erythema.
The normal curve presented by microfilaria carriers was corresponded to the group
sensitized by specific antigenic substances. These two different curves crossed each other
at the point of about 4.0mm. Therefore, if the reaction exceeded 4.0mm increase of diameter
of wheal was regaded as positive, 94.8% of the microfilaria carriers fell in positive reaction.
Reactivity of skin to the antigen was never influenced by other helminth infection and allergicdiseases.
Positive rate of the intradermal test assumed usually an upward curve according to theincrease of microfilaria incidence in the population. In the endemic areas, positive reaction
was often seen among those who have neither microfilaria nor clinical symptoms. These
128
positive reactions lacking filarial manifestation were also probably specific for filarial
infection, because the intradermal reaction and CF test using Dirofilaria immitis antigen
coincide with each other in 77.9% of those cases both tested.
From these results, it may be concluded that the intradermal reaction by FPT antigen is
specific for filarial infection and has a practical value for epidemiological survey in endemic
areas. (Auther)
