TMA indicates transcription-mediated amplification; S/CO, signal-to-cutoff; PCR, polymerase chain reaction; and NT, not tested.
TMA was done using the Gen-Probe/Novartis WNV assay on the TIGRIS automated platform. S/CO ratios of 1.00 or greater indicate a reactive test result.
Antibody testing (IgM and IgG) was performed by Focus Laboratories. S/CO ratios of 0.67 or greater for IgM and 1.30 or greater for IgG indicate a positive test result.
PCR testing was performed by National Genetics Institute using a quantitative assay with a 95% lower limit of detection of 5 copies per milliliter.
