Sensitivities of the bELISA and the AGID test for serum samples from birds that were inoculated with LPAI and HPAI virusesa
| Virus type | Sample size | AGID test sensitivity (95% CI) | bELISA sensitivity (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|---|
| HPAI | 56 | 0.821 (0.696-0.911) | 0.964 (0.877-0.996) |
| LPAI | 122 | 0.607 (0.514-0.694) | 0.754 (0.668-0.828) |
| Total | 178 | 0.674 (0.600-0.742) | 0.820 (0.756-0.874) |
The specificity for serum samples from 103 sham-inoculated (negative-control) birds was 1.000 (95% CI, 0.965 to 1.000) for both tests.
