Abstract

The performance of a direct sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting Aspergillus galactomannan was compared with that of the Pastorex Aspergillus antigen latex agglutination (LA) test by using 532 serum samples from 61 patients at risk for invasive aspergillosis. The ELISA gave positive results earlier in the course of infection than did the LA test. A sensitivity of 70% and a specificity of 86% were obtained for the LA test and corresponding values of 90 and 84% were obtained for the ELISA when a series of serum samples was employed.
