HIV 1 and 2 Ab [Identifier] in Serum, Plasma or Blood by Rapid immunoassay

HIV 1 & 2 Ab SerPlBld IA.rapid

Definition

This assay detects and differentiates between six distinct HIV antibodies: HIV-1 gp160, gp41, p31, and p24 and HIV-2 gp140 and gp36. It is intended for use as an additional, more specific test to confirm the presence of HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies found by screening procedures. It may also be used to confirm the presence of antibodies to HIV-1 and HIV-2 in pediatric subjects (children as young as 2 years of age). Because this assay examines antibodies to 6 distinct proteins, it yields a higher degree of specificity for HIV-1 and -2 compared to other methods (such as Multispot). This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's Bio-Rad Geenius HIV 1/2 Supplemental test kit.
