Sensitivity and specificity of the real time qPCR in blood and serum samples
| Blood samples | Serum samples | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ELISA + | ELISA - | ELISA + | ELISA - | |
| qPCR + | 39 (97.5%) | 0 (0%) | 38 (95%) | 0 (0%) |
| qPCR - | 1 (2.5%) | 20 (100%) | 2 (5%) | 20 (100%) |
| Total | 40 | 20 | 40 | 20 |
To calculate Sensitivity and Specificity values, serology was considered as gold standard.
