Dear all I would recommend using DAT and rK39 strip test to measure antibody
responses and to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency for both tests in such group
of patients.

Dear Saad first precaution to take is to separate your samples into several
portions each (at least 5 each being no more than a few hundred(200-400)
microliters). This is a necessary precaution to avoid freezing and thawing
several times the same sample which will be the case should you do different
studies at different times which is unavoidable.
What you can do is correlate the type(ulcerated, abscess, furuncle etc.. ) the
locale, the number and age of lesions with the levels of antibody in the sera of
these patgients and also monitor cell mediated immunity with leishmanin skin
test!
I have just published (in print) an article about having circulating parasites
in some of these patients with apparently pure cutaneous disease. It is the
first paper that revealed this fact. It would be interesting to confirm or
de-confirm this fact repeating what we did.
