In this study, we have compared the detection of IgM and IgG against C. burnetii phase II of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) (Euroimmun) and a chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) (VIRCLIA, Vircell). In addition, an indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) was used as a reference test. One hundred forty-eight sera were used for IgG evaluation, and eighty-eight for IgM. The sensitivity of ELISA and CLIA in detecting phase II IgM was excellent. On the other hand, the CLIA IgM showed better specificity than the ELISA IgM. As for phase II IgG, the specificity of ELISA and CLIA was similar, while the ELISA technique showed a higher sensitivity. In conclusion, the best system to detect phase II IgM antibodies against C. burnetii is the CLIA from Vircell, which is characterized by high sensitivity and specificity. For the detection of phase II IgG, the Euroimmun ELISA and Vircell CLIA assays are suitable for the determination of this marker in the laboratory, although the IgG ELISA has greater sensitivity.
