Table 3. Subjects Who Showed Differences in IFN-γ Positivity between the QFT-GIT and ichroma™ IGRA-TB Tests.

Sample QFT-GIT ELISA ichroma™ IGRA-TB cartridge
Result IFN-γ (IU/mL) Result IFN-γ (IU/mL)
1 Positive 0.42 Negative 0.16
2 Positive 0.57 Negative -0.22
3 Positive 0.95 Negative 0.12

QFT-GIT, QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube; ELISA, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; IGRA, IFN-γ release assay; TB, tuberculosis.

The three positive IFN-γ responders on the QFT-GIT test were weakly positive (≥0.35 but <1.0 IU/mL), and those responders did not show positive responses on the test with the ichroma™ IGRA-TB cartridge (≤0.21 IU/mL).
