Lateral-Flow Assay for Rapid Serodiagnosis of Human Leptospirosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
An assay device for the rapid detection of Leptospira-specific immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies in human sera is presented. The sensitivity (85.8%) and specificity (93.6%) of the assay compared well (91.9% agreement) with those of an IgM enzyme-linked ...
