Comparison of commercial enzyme immunoassay kits with plaque reduction neutralization test for detection of measles virus antibody [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1995 Four commercially available enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kits were evaluated in comparison with the plaque reduction neutralization (PRN) test for detection of measles virus antibody. The EIA kits, Enzygnost (Behring), Diamedix, Vidas (bioMerieux Vitek), and Measlestat (Biowhittaker), were assessed with two PRN cutoff titers: a PRN titer of 8, the lowest ...

Comparative Analysis of Hemagglutination Inhibition and Plaque Reduction Neutralization Tests for Japanese Encephalitis Virus Antibody Detection [PDF]
VirusesJapanese encephalitis (JE) is a zoonotic disease caused by the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), belonging to the Flaviviridae family. Diagnosis of Japanese encephalitis (JE) based on clinical signs alone is challenging due to the high proportion of subclinical cases.

Zika Virus and the World Health Organization Criteria for Determining Recent Infection Using Plaque Reduction Neutralization Testing [PDF]
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2018 The recent Zika virus (ZIKV) epidemic swept across Latin America and the Caribbean, where dengue virus (DENV) is endemic. The antigenic similarities of these closely related flaviviruses left researchers and clinicians with challenges to interpret serological tests.
