To develop and qualify an ELISA for detecting anti-Lassa virus nucleoprotein IgG antibodies in human serum.
Development of an ELISA designed to detect anti-LASV-NP IgG in human serum samples.
Assay qualification conducted at clinical trial laboratories in Ghana.
Assessment of inter-assay precision and the establishment of a new reference standard.
The developed ELISA reliably quantifies anti-LASV-NP IgG antibodies in various West African serum samples.
High concordance observed with a discontinued assay (specific metrics not provided).
The assay remained effective with minimal signal loss across freeze-thaw cycles.
