ABSTRACT
A multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification assay for simultaneous detection of six virus species was developed and tested on clinical cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. The assay, termed MeningoFinder, showed an accordance of 97%, concordance of 96%, interlaboratory sensitivity of 90%, and interlaboratory specificity of 94% compared to PCRs.
