Abstract: Food-born trematodes which parasitize liver, lung and intestine cause various trematodes diseases. There are a few common trematodes such as Clonorchis sinensis, Fasciola, Opisthorchis, Paragonimus, and Echinostoma. This review provides recent progress in techniques and methods for their immunodiagnosis. These methods are mainly used to diagnose with excretory-secretary antigen, recombinant antigen and antibodies of hosts, by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, immunoblotting, immunefluorescence, immunehistochemistry, proteomics and a lateral flow detection system so on. It is beneficial to improve diagnostic and accuracy rates when all this methods are used synthetically.
