Background:
To develop a capturing-ELISA for the detection of anti-HCMV-IgM antibody in serum.
Methods:
The anti-HCMV-IgM antibody was detected in 68 patients with HCMV infection by the capturing-ELISA, and the results were compared with those of indirect ELISA.
Results:
The specificity and sensitivity of the capturing-ELISA were shown to be significantly higher than those of indirect ELISA, and its results were not affected by RF factor.
Conclusion:
The capturing ELISA is specific, sensitive, convenient and reliable method which may be feasible for clinical use.
