Performance of two new enzyme immunoassays for the detection of IgM and IgG antibodies to rubella.

C Granberg1, O Meurman.   

Abstract

Two new enzyme immunoassays for detection of rubella-specific IgM and IgG antibodies, Rubaset EIA-M and Rubaset EIA-G, were evaluated. Serum samples from 350 patients with or without rubella symptoms were tested. Rubaset EIA-M had a sensitivity of 98.0%, a specificity of 95.2% and an overall agreement of 96.8% compared with Rubazyme-M. Sera from patients with autoimmune diseases showed no false-positive reactivity. The corresponding values for Rubaset EIA-G were 98.5%, 94.8% and 96.9% respectively, compared with Rubazyme. Sera yielding discordant results were mainly acute-phase specimens from patients with confirmed rubella infection.
