Venn diagram of the results of serology versus pentaplex qRT-PCR assays. The serology and pentaplex qRT-PCR assays were performed to detect HBV(A), HCV(B), HEV (C), and T. pallidum(D) in 2400 blood samples. Number of samples positive by serology only (blue), positive by pentaplex qRT-PCR only(yellow), or positive by both serology and pentaplex qRT-PCR (green). Number of samples negative by both serology and pentaplex qRT-PCR(grey)
