Trichinella spiralis excretory/secretory antigens recognized by Western blot in muscle fluids from wild boar. Signal intensities and relative migration values (Rf) of the proteins recognized by: a positive control muscle fluid from an experimentally infected pig, panel A; the muscle fluid from the wild boar with 0.15 LPG in the diaphragm, panel B; a low positive muscle fluid from a wild boar, panel C; a muscle fluid from an uninfected control pig, panel D; and the false positive muscle fluids from two ELISA-positive wild boars, panels E and F. Numbers above each peak refer to the software deduced molecular weights of the bands.
