A new immunoglobulin M (IgM) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on the recombinant Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) matrix protein was developed. Compared to indirect immunofluorescence for the detection of IgM antibody to the EBV capsid antigen on clinical specimens, the sensitivity and specificity of the new IgM ELISA were 96 and 96%, respectively.
