Abstract
Anti-Endomysium antibodies (EmA) detection is the most reliable test for the diagnosis of coeliac disease. Usually monkey distal oesophagus sections are used. Tests with ELISA anti-gliadin (AGA) antibodies show that umbilical cord EmA tests can effectively substitute monkey oesophagus EmA tests.
