Comparison of antibodies for rapid detection of cytomegalovirus

D N Randazzo et al. J Clin Microbiol. 1988 Feb.

Abstract

Antibodies were compared for use in the spin-amplified shell vial method for rapid cytomegalovirus detection. Commercial antibodies by Du Pont Co., Whittaker M.A. Bioproducts, Bartels Immunodiagnostic, Virostat, and Serono Diagnostics were compared at incubation times of 16 to 48 h on 22 patient specimens. Only the Du Pont antibody showed 100% sensitivity and specificity and no nonspecific reactions.
