A multi-country comparative study of two treponemal tests for the serodiagnosis of Syphilis amongst Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM): Chemo-luminescent assay vs Treponema pallidum passive particle agglutination assay

2023-04-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction: </h4> International guidelines recommend routine screening for syphilis (aetiological agent: Treponema pallidum subspecies pallidum ) amongst key populations and vulnerable populations using tests detecting treponemal and non-treponemal antibodies. Whilst treponemal tests have high sensitivities and specificities, they differ regarding subjective or objective interpretation, throughput and worklo...
