IgG antibody levels in bancroftian sera against recombinant B. malayi and Wolbachia proteins. IgG antibodies in each individual of different categories were measured by ELISA for a Bm-TPP; b BmAF-Myo; c Wol Tl IF-1; and d wBm-LigA proteins and presented in scatter plots where each dot represents absorbance of individual sera and horizontal lines represent the mean. e Bar graphs showing protein levels (mean + standard deviation) in each group. Groups were compared using Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA and the significance of the differences in mean ranks between groups was assessed by Mann-Whitney U test. Data are from one of the three similar experiments using same serum sample. * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; *** P < 0.001
