HEPATITIS C VIRUS ANTIBODIES IN SERUM

Indications:

No special indications

What it's for:

Confirmation of the presence of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-specific IgG antibodies in serum samples that are reactive to HCV antibody tests. Distinguish between true and false reactive HCV antibody test results. This test is not intended for use as an HCV antibody screening test for blood or human tissue/cell donors. This assay is not useful for detecting early or acute hepatitis C (<2 months from exposure), as immunocompromised patients may not develop detectable HCV antibodies in the blood until 6 months after infection. This assay is not useful in differentiating between past (resolved) and chronic hepatitis C. Este ensayo no es útil para diferenciar entre hepatitis C pasada (resuelta) y crónica.

Delivery time:
