| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The plan to eradicate lymphatic filariasis progresses on the global scale, and establishment of a system to confirm the eradication and to detect relapse promptly is necessary at this stage. We made a system to estimate the risk of filarial infection with (1) urinary anti-filarial antibody detection among school children, (2) examination of vector mosquito by filarial DNA detection, (3) acquisition of location information of the obtained data in Sri Lanka. With this system, we were able to find a new epidemic focus and remaining infection.
