One-step treponemal vs. non-treponemal antibody antenatal screening, and syphilis serodiagnosis using the traditional algorithm against the reverse algorithm in a high HIV prevalence setting [PDF]

Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine
Objective: No single serology test on its own can confirm a syphilis diagnosis. We assessed the utility of a reactive treponemal test (TT) against a non-treponemal test (NTT), each as a sole indicator of infection warranting immediate treatment and the ...

A novel ELISA using a recombinant outer membrane protein, rTp0663, as the antigen for serological diagnosis of syphilis

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2016
Background: The lack of Treponema pallidum-specific antigens with highly accurate diagnosis makes the diagnosis of syphilis challenging. Methods: A soluble recombinant version of a new diagnostic protein Tp0663 has been produced.
