TABLE 2.
Time (days) from OPV vaccination | Median RP (%) by:
|
Difference (%) | |
---|---|---|---|
Real-time PCR | MAPREC | ||
−4 to 13 | 97.3 | 92 | 5.3 |
14-77 | 99.2b | 100b | 0.8 |
Median RPs from all samples obtained by MAPREC were compared to those obtained by real-time PCR. Samples with a difference in RP of >10% were obtained within 5 days of OPV administration.
Samples obtained at or after day 14 postvaccination had ≥95% revertants by either method (n = 29).
