Two commercially available enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kits (IgA EIA-TB [EIA-IgA] and IgG EIA-TB [EIA-IgG]; Kreatech Diagnostics) were evaluated in a blinded fashion by using stored serum samples from 268 individuals, including 69 patients with PTB, 41 patients with diseases other than tuberculosis (TB), 12 subjects with healed PTB, 39 close contacts of PTB patients, and 107 healthy volunteers. For the EIA-IgA, the sensitivity was 74% and the specificity was 68% when a cutoff determined by a receiver operator characteristic curve was used. For the EIA-IgG, the sensitivity was 69% and the specificity was 64%. The EIA-IgA was positive for 54% of healthy close contacts of PTB patients but only 8% of healthy controls without contact with a PTB patient or a prior personal history of TB (\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt; 0.001). The relatively low sensitivities and specificities of these serologic tests make them poor tools for the diagnosis of PTB among patients with suspected PTB. However, the relatively high prevalence of positive EIA-IgA results among healthy close contacts of PTB patients warrants further evaluation of this test with close contacts and other populations at risk for recent\n            <jats:italic>M. tuberculosis<\/jats:italic>\n            exposure and development of disease.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/cdli.11.1.94-97.2004","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,1,11]],"date-time":"2004-01-11T00:18:20Z","timestamp":1073780300000},"page":"94-97","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Immunoglobulin A (IgA) and IgG Immune Responses against P-90 Antigen for Diagnosis of Pulmonary Tuberculosis and Screening for\n            <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis<\/i>\n            Infection"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Marcus B.","family":"Conde","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidade de Pesquisa em Tuberculose, Instituto de Doenc\u0327as do To\u0301rax, Hospital Universita\u0301rio Clementino Fraga Filho, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro"},{"name":"Laborato\u0301rio de Biologia Molecular e Diagno\u0301stico de Doenc\u0327as Infecciosas e Laborato\u0301rio de Hanseni\u0301ase Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Fundac\u0327a\u0303o Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil"},{"name":"Center for Tuberculosis Research, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Philip","family":"Suffys","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidade de Pesquisa em Tuberculose, Instituto de Doenc\u0327as do To\u0301rax, Hospital Universita\u0301rio Clementino Fraga Filho, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro"},{"name":"Laborato\u0301rio de Biologia Molecular e Diagno\u0301stico de Doenc\u0327as Infecciosas e Laborato\u0301rio de Hanseni\u0301ase Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Fundac\u0327a\u0303o Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil"},{"name":"Center for Tuberculosis Research, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jose Roberto","family":"Lapa e Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidade de Pesquisa em Tuberculose, Instituto de Doenc\u0327as do To\u0301rax, Hospital Universita\u0301rio Clementino Fraga Filho, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro"},{"name":"Laborato\u0301rio de Biologia Molecular e Diagno\u0301stico de Doenc\u0327as Infecciosas e Laborato\u0301rio de Hanseni\u0301ase Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Fundac\u0327a\u0303o Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil"},{"name":"Center for Tuberculosis Research, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Afranio L.","family":"Kritski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidade de Pesquisa em Tuberculose, Instituto de Doenc\u0327as do To\u0301rax, Hospital Universita\u0301rio Clementino Fraga Filho, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro"},{"name":"Laborato\u0301rio de Biologia Molecular e Diagno\u0301stico de Doenc\u0327as Infecciosas e Laborato\u0301rio de Hanseni\u0301ase Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Fundac\u0327a\u0303o Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil"},{"name":"Center for Tuberculosis Research, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Susan E.","family":"Dorman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidade de Pesquisa em Tuberculose, Instituto de Doenc\u0327as do To\u0301rax, Hospital Universita\u0301rio Clementino Fraga Filho, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro"},{"name":"Laborato\u0301rio de Biologia Molecular e Diagno\u0301stico de Doenc\u0327as Infecciosas e Laborato\u0301rio de Hanseni\u0301ase Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Fundac\u0327a\u0303o Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil"},{"name":"Center for Tuberculosis Research, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"235","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"601","DOI":"10.1378\/chest.111.3.601","volume":"111","year":"1997","unstructured":"Alifano, M., R.
