The respective advantages of complement fixation and ELISA for routine diagnosis of cytomegalovirus infection.
The results of CF and ELISA tests for cytomegalovirus performed on 270 sera of hospitalized patients show a positive correlation. As a general rule, ELISA is more sensitive than CF, except for a few sera collected from patients with immunological disorders. When two sequential sera are available, the CF remains a reliable and inexpensive method. But when only one serum can be obtained, the probability of an active CMV infection can be estimated on the IgM/IgG ratio. In 26% of the patients, this ratio was greater than or equal to 1. The ELISA is twice as expensive as the CF test. To reduce its cost, a simple method for preparing ELISA antigen from commercially-obtained CF antigens is described.
