Abstract
The present invention relates to compositions and methods involving diagnostic tests with multiple test antigens. The present invention involves the expanded use of test antigens as cross-reactive control antigens (CCAs). The invention advantageously provides for enhanced test results analysis by simultaneously providing both test antigen and CCA signal results. These results, in turn, allow useful sample comparison and cross-reference between samples to more accurately identify and verify the fidelity of test results obtained for multiple infective agents at once. The present invention may include compositions and methods for detecting infection by Zika virus or another flavivirus, and may distinguish between infections caused by genetically similar agents.
