Fig. 2From: Characterization of a Monanema nematode in Ixodes scapularisDetection of anti-Filarioidea IgG antibodies by Luciferase Immunoprecipitation System assay. The antibody titers shown in light units are plotted on the y-axis in log-scale. Shown are the results of the sera from Lyme disease or babesiosis patients (n = 128), patients with onchocerciasis (n = 15), sera from Peromyscus leucopus (n = 8) and negative controls (n = 29). The dashed line represents the diagnostic cutoff and is derived from the mean antibody titer of negative controls plus 5 standard deviationsBack to article page
