product presentation
The HIV 1/2 Human Immunodeficiency Virus Rapid Test Device (Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma) is a rapid test to qualitatively detect the presence of antibody to HIV 1 and/or HIV 2 in whole blood, serum or plasma specimen. The test utilizes latex conjugate and multiple recombinant HIV proteins to selectively detect antibodies to the HIV 1/2 in whole blood, serum or plasma.
principle of the product
HIV is the etiologic agent of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The virion is surrounded by a lipid envelope that is derived from host cell membrane. Several viral glycoproteins are on the envelope. Each virus contains two copies of positive‐sense genomic RNAs. HIV 1 has been isolated from patients with AIDS and AIDS‐related complex, and from healthy people with high potential risk for developing AIDS.
1 HIV 2 has been isolated from West African AIDS patients and from seropositive asymptomatic individuals.2 Both HIV 1 and HIV 2 elicit immune response.3 Detection of HIV antibodies in serum, plasma or whole blood is the most efficient and common way to determine whether an individual has been exposed to HIV and to screen blood and blood products for HIV.4 Despite of the differences in their biological characters, serological activities and genome sequences, HIV 1 and HIV 2 show strong antigenic cross‐reactivity.5,6 Most HIV 2 positive sera can be identified by using HIV 1 based serological tests.
Human immunodeficiency virus, also known as HIV. AIDS refers to the destruction of the human immune system by HIV, which makes the body lose its resistance to various life-threatening pathogens, leading to various infections or tumors, leading to serious infectious diseases. It is mainly transmitted through blood, sexual contact and from mother to child.
At present, the diagnosis of HIV virus mainly relies on the detection of HIV antibodies in the blood. However, due to the invasive nature of blood collection and the risk of infection by blood-borne infections, there is a growing recognition that the ideal HIV test should be non-invasive, safe and sensitive. HIV antibodies are found in the blood, oral mucosa, urine, tears, and semen
