Title: Donor screening for parvovirus B19 antibodies:


1
Donor screening for parvovirus B19 antibodies
Reducing or eliminating the risk of

CE Marked FDA Approved
  • Intact Viral particles are essential for 100
    detection of B19.
  • VP1/2 antigens expressed in E.Coli do not form
    particles and give 10-20 false negative IgG
    results.

  • Vireamic donations - antibody profiles
  • 70 Vireamic (10e6 IU / ml) samples collected
    over 12- 18 month period
  • Biotrin examined the B19 IgG and IgM levels

  • Specificity of the assay
  • To evaluate integrity of positive results at the
    low end of the range -
  • In a panel of 500 blood donors, 350 (70) were
    IgG positive.
  • 18 samples (3.5) were very low pos, index 1.1
    to 2.5
  • These 18 samples were tested by confirmatory
    competitive (VP2) assay

Specificity of the assay

  • Effectiveness of IgG donor screening
  • Normal donor population (Netherlands) 80 are IgG
    reactive
  • Of all vireamic specimens detected by plasma PCR
    screen process (10e6 IU ml), in a 12-18 month
    period, 0 true IgG positives (n70)
  • Rate of parvo IgG in normal donors is possibly at
    least 80 times rate in vireamic donors
  • Typically 1 in 10,000 fresh blood product units
    donated are vireamic
  • (10e5 IU / ml) (greater in epidemic)
  • Consider that with a 1 time IgG screen at the
    time of donation, the rate of vireamic donations
    may be better than 1 in 800,000
  • (Allowing for 1 false positive in this case,
    1.43 are apparent reactive
  • rate of vireamic donations would be of the order
    of 1 in 560,000)

  • Current Sanquin Approach The two-time testing
    model is clearly successful in reducing, if not
    eliminating, high vireamic donations.
  • Main drawback is requirement for time gap in
    two-time testing
  • One time screening using combined tests maybe
    possible
  • 1) IgG / IgM- donors (zero of 70 viraemics
    tested)
  • 2) IgG / Parvo Ag- donors
  • 3) IgG / PCR low donors
  • Studies ongoing

10
  • Use of antigen in Parvovirus IgG ELISAs
  • The Biotrin assay is based on G1 (B19) VP2
    Capsid
  • Is VP1 and VP2 required for detection of all
    positives?
  • Does the Biotrin assay work for Genotype 2 (A6)
    and Genotype 3 (V9)?

Servant et al, 2002
Test 500 donors from G1 (B19) region (UK) Test
500 donors from G3 (V9) region (Ghana)
12
138 UK Donors tested (to date) using several
capsid antigens
13
  • 500 Ghanaian Donors
  • 100 tested to date
  • Different index value distribution compared to
    European populations
  • Lower Index Values overall
  • But no difference in results between antigens.
  • Testing of Ghanaian Children that G3 Antisera reacts with Biotrins G1 antigen
    as well as with experimental G3 antigen.
  • G3 derived antibodies are detected as well as G1
    derived antibodies using the current assay.

14
An Antigen-Capture EIA for the detection of
Parvovirus B19 in human plasma.
  • The first EIA for B19 Virus Detection.
  • Employs a classic sandwich EIA format.
  • Sensitivity of approximately 5 x 107 IU / ml.
  • High specificity, no false-positive results in
    over 500 normal human plasmas tested.
  • Capability to detect virus in the presence of
    high levels of anti-B19 IgM and / or IgG.
  • Detection of variants e.g. V9
