Preincubation of parvovirus B19 (B19)–contaminated platelets with amotosalen as measured by preamplification polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and enzyme‐linked immunospot (ELISpot) assays. A, The log inhibition of B19‐infected platelet concentrates with increasing exposure time to amotosalen before UV A light (UVA) treatment. The preamplification PCR log inhibition results were averaged from results using 3‐ and 5‐kb preamplification amplicons. The same samples were subjected to ELISpot to measure log reductions in infectivity. B, The strong correlation between the preamplification PCR and ELISpot assay as represented by direct plotting of results from both assays.
