RESUMO
Using the results of Epstein-Barr virus-specific immunofluorescence serology as the "gold standard," we found that the sensitivities of the five rapid test kits varied from 78 to 84% and specificities varied from 89 to 100%. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-determined specific Epstein-Barr virus antibody profiles had a sensitivity and specificity of 98.6 and 95.5%, respectively.
