1

Confirmed by real-time PCR in triplicate. Samples 2, 9, 12, and 4 constitute a dilution series: their concentrations are provided as expected upon dilution factors, but they have also been confirmed by real-time RT-PCR.

2

These participants used commercial RT-PCR assays (Revertal, Qiagen).

3

+, West Nile virus detected. Viruses other than West Nile virus detected: S, St. Louis encephalitis virus; Y, yellow fever virus; D, dengue virus; F, unspecified flavivirus.

4

SLEV, St. Louis encephalitis virus; JEV, Japanese B encephalitis virus; TBEV, tick-borne encephalitis virus.

5

RNA copies in detail: DenV-1, 1.5E8/mL; DenV-2, 2.0E8/mL; DenV-3, 2.0E6/mL; DenV-4, 2.2E8/mL.
