OD values at 15 min for CSF and serum samples from patients with HSE or VZV CNS infectiona
| Antigen | Mean OD (SE) |
|||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HSE (n = 14) |
VZV (n = 15) |
|||
| CSF | Serum | CSF | Serum | |
| VZV gE | 0.15 (0.05) | 0.10 (0.01) | 1.36 (0.15) | 0.47 (0.10) |
| Whole VZV | 0.92 (0.13) | 0.37 (0.07) | 1.50 (0.13) | 0.78 (0.13) |
The total IgG in serum and CSF samples is diluted to an identical concentration of 1 μg/ml in all samples and analyzed with VZV gE antigen versus whole-VZV antigen by ELISA (data illustrated in Fig. 1).
