متن کاملMicrobiological Diagnosis of Mumps
Mumps virus infection is normally diagnosed by serologic testing. Identification of mumps-specific IgM antibodies in serum or plasma by enzyme immunoassay analysis (EIA) in samples taken during the acute phase is the most-widely used serologic test for the diagnosis of mumps, due to its simplicity, high sensitivity and specificity. When the infection cannot be confirmed by serologic tests, the ...
