Comparison of antibody reactivities of four MuAstV recombinant proteins in multiplex serology.

<p>Box plot of net MFI values (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0187174#pone.0187174.s001" target="_blank">S1 Dataset</a>) are shown. Boxes are delimited by the first and third quartile (IQR, Q1-Q3) and represent 50% of data. Whiskers show the 10^th and 90^th percentiles, respectively. The dots represent data points beyond the upper and lower 10^th percentile. The line inside the boxes represents the median. The distribution of MFI values of the negative sera (n = 7) are shown in white boxes, those of the positive sera (n = 112) in grey boxes. All four antigens show significant differences between positive and negative serum samples (VP27 and VP70 long P < 0.001, VP34 P = 0.008, VP70 short P = 0.015, Mann-Whitney Rank Sum test).
