Reproducibility was assessed from samples of 4 individuals of EGEA2
survey which were measured on each of the 6 arrays. For each
virus-specific IgG level, the mean of the CV calculated for each of the
four individuals is reported. Distributions of virus-specific IgG data
are presented as median [interquartile range] of the calibrated and
corrected for the background level values (before normalization) and
expressed in FI.
IgG: Immunoglobulin G; CV: coefficient of variation; ICC: intra-class
correlation coefficient; EGEA: Epidemiological study on the Genetics and
Environment of Asthma; RSV: respiratory syncytial virus; RV: rhinovirus.
