title: Reproducibility of a neuraminidase inhibition test employed to measure anti-influenza neuraminidase antibody.
abstract: The standard deviation was determined for 146 replications of the neuraminidase inhibition test for antineuraminidase antibody employing two ferret antisera and the recombinant viruses X-15 and X-15(HK). The standard deviation found was 0.612 log(2) and is a quantitative estimate of the reproducibility of the test.
