Comparison of IgG-ELISA and NT antibody assay for detecting JCV in human sera. a Spectrophotometric results for assessing the specificity and sensitivity of IgG-ELISA for detecting JCV in human sera. The 38 specimens were classified into 5 groups based on previous results; group 1: JCV and SSHV both-positive and NT antibody titer for JCV was higher than that for SSHV (10 samples); group 2: JCV-positive and SSHV-negative (15 samples); group 3: both-positive and NT antibody titer for JCV was less than that for SSHV (5 samples); group 4: JCV-negative and SSHV-positive (4 samples); group 5: both-negative (4 samples). b, c Comparison between IgG-ELISA OD450 values and neutralization antibody titers for JCV and SSHV. Statistical analyses were performed using the Mann–Whitney U test and Spearman’s rank correlation. Asterisks indicate p < 0.005
