“…For both serum and FP samples, the estimated distribution of PP values for positive samples was much wider (larger standard deviation) compared to negative samples (Fig 2). This large standard deviation in the distribution of positive samples was previously described by Garnier et al [39] in a Table 1 for references).…”

“…To estimate the optimal cut-off value of PP to discriminate between negative and positive samples, we used a mixture-distribution modelling (MDM) approach. This method is commonly used to estimate cut-offs for diagnostic tests both in animals [39][40][41] and in humans [42,43]. Briefly, we assumed that the test results from our sampled population could be represented as a mixture of two underlying subpopulations, corresponding to negative and positive samples, with Gaussian distributions and distinct parameters (mean and standard deviation).…”

“…Results are expressed as optical densities (ODs). The use of anti-chicken IgY to detect yellow-nosed albatross IgY has previously been validated using an experimental design and the positivity threshold was adapted using a method relying on fitting a mixture of normal distributions to the values of ODs (see Garnier et al 2017). The two assays, thus, only partly overlap in their targeted immunoglobulins: they detect different isotypes, directed against different epitopes, which may or may not be agglutinating.…”
