  • Bibliographic description in the original language Whelan C., Whelan A.O., Shuralev E., Kwok H.F., Hewinson G., Clarke J., Vordermeier H.M. Performance of the Enferplex TB assay with cattle in Great Britain and assessment of its suitability as a test to distinguish infected and vaccinated animals // Clin Vaccine Immunol. 2010. 17(5): 813-817. DOI: 10.1128/CVI.00489-09
    Annotation Our results indicate that the test has a relative sensitivity range of 77.0% to 86.5% at corresponding specificity levels of 100.0% to 77.6%. Comparison with the Bovigam gamma interferon antemortem test revealed that this serology test was significantly more sensitive at specificities above 97.9%, while the Bovigam test was, on average, about 10% more sensitive when the test specificity was set below 97%. Importantly, this serological multiplex assay does not react with sera from BCG-vaccinated calves and is therefore suitable as a DIVA test alongside BCG-based vaccine strategies.
