Comparative evaluation of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with rapid plasma reagin for screening of syphilis in blood donors

World Health Organization (WHO) recommends screening of syphilis in low prevalence populations of blood donors by treponemal tests like enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), whereas in India screening is done by rapid plasma reagin (RPR). The present pilot study evaluated the performance of ELI...
