Fasciola IgG

Fascioliasis is a parasitic infection typically caused by Fasciola hepatica. Infection comes from accidentally ingesting (swallowing) the parasite, possibly through contaminated freshwater plants. Major symptoms include gastrointestinal problems such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain/tenderness. This test is used to diagnose Fasciola infection by detecting IgG antibodies to this parasite.
