Strategies for diagnosis of HTLV‐I and ‐II

1 Jun 2002

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: No gold standard exists for diagnosis of HTLV infection. The aim of thus study was to compare the accuracy of a combination of two sensitive ELISAs with Western blot (WB), a line immunoassay, and PCR for diagnosis of HTLV infection. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Nine hundred eighty-five specimens were tested for the presence of HTLV antibodies by HTLV-I and/or HTLV-II EIAs (Murex and Ortho), WB...
