Microarray of surface-exposed proteins of rickettsia heilongjiangensisfor serodiagnosis of Far-eastern spotted fever

Table 2 The sensitivity and specificity of individual rSEPs on microarray probed with the acute-phase sera (n = 17) or convalescent-phase sera (n = 17)

*The summary of sensitivities of each protein to both acute- and convalescent-phase sera and specificity of each protein was calculated to evaluate its ability as a candidate antigen for diagnosis of FESF.
