LaboratoryHIV 1+2 Ab [Presence] in Serum, Plasma or Blood by Rapid immunoassay
Definition
This term should be used for assays that detect the presence of antibodies to HIV-1 and/or -2 but do not differentiate between the two. This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, the bioMerieux VIKIA HIV 1/2 assay for the qualitative detection of antibodies to HIV-1 and HIV-2 in human serum, plasma, or whole blood. The VIKIA HIV 1/2 assay result should be read 30 minutes after the sample is applied to the sample well.
