Assay | % Sensitivity (95% CI) | % Specificity (95% CI) | κ (95% CI) |
---|---|---|---|
pA104R-ELISA | 79 (69.8-87.7) | 99 (97.5-100) | 0.81 (0.72-0.89) |
p54-ELISA | 98 (94.1-100) | 97 (94.7-100) | 0.95 (0.90-0.99) |
pK205R-ELISA | 91 (85.1-97.4) | 99 (97.5-100) | 0.92 (0.86-0.97) |
pB602L-ELISA | 98 (94.1-100) | 95 (91.0-98.9) | 0.92 (0.86-0.97) |
OIE-ELISA | 94 (88.4-99.1) | 95 (91.0-98.9) | 0.89 (0.82-0.95) |
A total of 199 serum samples (80 positive, 119 negative) from European domestic pigs that had previously been characterized by immunoblotting (OIE reference test) were analyzed.
