Title: [Assessment of an ELISA for the detection of antibodies against HIV-1 protein p24]. Author: Ribas Antúnez MA, Silva Cabrera E, Resik Aguirre S, Rodríguez Valdés C, Toraño Canto I. Journal: Rev Cubana Med Trop; 1999; 51(2):130-2. PubMed ID: 10887574. Abstract: DAVIH AC p24 kit for detecting anti p24 antibodies of HIV-1, worked out by the National Laboratory of Reference of AIDS (Labor-1, Cuba) is assessed and results are compared to those of the Western Blot technique (DAVIH-Blot, Labor-1, Cuba). 191 samples from HIV positive patients at various stages of the disease were analyzed. 96% sensitivity; 100% specificity and 96.3% coincidence were found in both techniques. The anti p-24 ELISA-DAVIH system is a good alternative for the follow-up of HIV positive patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
