HIV Ab Ag ELISA KIT

Product Description

The HIV Ab/Ag ELISA Test is a highly sensitive and specific diagnostic tool designed for the detection of HIV antibodies (Ab) and p24 antigen (Ag) in human serum or plasma. It is widely used in the early diagnosis and screening of HIV infections, contributing to timely medical intervention and public health management.

Intended Use

This test is intended for the qualitative detection of HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies as well as HIV-1 p24 antigen in human serum or plasma. It is used to:

• Screen for HIV infection in clinical and public health settings.

• Support early diagnosis, as the p24 antigen can be detected before antibodies are formed.

• Assist in monitoring and prevention efforts to reduce the transmission of HIV.

Clinical Significance

• HIV Antibodies (Ab): These are produced by the immune system in response to HIV infection and are usually detectable within 2-8 weeks after exposure.

• HIV p24 Antigen (Ag): A core protein of HIV, detectable within the first few weeks after infection, often before antibody formation.

• The combination of antibody and antigen detection increases the diagnostic window, enabling earlier and more accurate detection of HIV infections.

Features and Benefits

• Early Detection: Detects HIV-1 p24 antigen for early diagnosis before seroconversion.

• High Sensitivity and Specificity: Ensures reliable results with minimal false positives or negatives.

• Dual Marker Detection: Identifies both HIV antibodies and antigen for comprehensive screening.

• User-Friendly Protocol: Simple and efficient workflow suitable for routine laboratory testing.

• Scalable Testing: Suitable for high-throughput and small-scale laboratories.
