A game-changing solution for accurate Lyme disease diagnosis.
Specificity: >99% for IgG and 97% for IgM
IgG Sensitivity: 92.4%
IgM Sensitivity (Acute Lyme;<6 weeks): 79.4%
Combined IgG-IgM sensitivity: >95%
Using a peptide-based precision (120 epitopes corresponding to 37 Borrelia antigens), our tests exhibit a marked improvement in sensitivity, outperforming existing commercial assays without a loss in specificity.
