Abstract

Due to the increase of Zika virus (ZIKV) transmission throughout the world, many commercial kits have recently become available to aid in laboratory diagnosis of ZIKV infections in clinical samples. Here, we analyze the fully automated Liaison® XL Zika Capture immunoglobulin M (IgM) assay against the recommended IgM-capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Keywords: Arbovirus; Diagnostics; Emerging pathogens; Immunoassay; Zika.
