Table 2 The level of agreement between the different PCR assays and the 'gold standard' Snounou nested PCR in trials with artificially infected and field-collected mosquitoes as determined by Cohen's Kappa measure of test association
| Artificially infected | Field-collected | |
|---|---|---|
| Method | n = 96 | n = 269a |
| Snounou nested | κ = 1 | κ = 1 |
| TaqMan | κ = 0.858 | κ = 0.925 |
| Tassanakajon | κ = 0.767 | κ = 0.264 |
