Table 2 Comparison of detection performance between AGSCS and G-test for 198 clinical serum samples (Enzyme micro-plate reader)

From: A novel aptamer-G-quadruplex/hemin self-assembling color system: rapid visual diagnosis of invasive fungal infections

Definite diagnosis	AGSCS		Total	G-test		Total
Definite diagnosis	Positive	Negative	Total	Positive	Negative	Total
Positive	76	6	82	71	11	82
Negative	12	104	116	20	96	116
Total	88	110	198	91	107	198

The 198 serum sample from human were detected using AGSCS and G-test. The sensitivity of AGSCS and G-test were 92.68% and 86.58%, the specificity of both were 89.65% and 82.75%, respectively. The accuracy of AGSCS and G-test were 90.9% and 84.34% respectively. The AGSCS showed better detectability for patients with IFI than G-test (² = 3.936, p = 0.0473).
