Avatar m tn the most common HIV test is the ELISA HIV Antibody test,which has a window period of 12 weeks, but you can get a solid result from 8 weeks onward, if it is available, I would suggest a DUO test at 4-6 weeks mark...
Avatar m tn ve 30.50.60.70.80.86.92.115 elisa test. it necessary to obtain the test to be negative anymore, all the days of 6 months?
Avatar n tn I got tested in December 20th=negative elisa, January 2nd=negative elisa, January 27th=negative elisa, and finally I got tested February 7th=negative PCR DNA & Negative Elisa Combo. Can I move on? should I get tested again now been almost 9 months since? I cannot get that fear out of my head. I have a white tongue kinda hairy, which stresses me out even more!
Avatar f tn My counsellor told that the window period for EIA Rapid test is 6 months and for Elisa it is 3-6 months. Was he correct? Is there any difference between Rapid EIA or Rapid ELISA?
Avatar m tn cmia reported to be positive in that report ELISA is negative. Respectively on 8 March, 30 March and 3 may go on a test center for HIV, the test is ELISA HIV1 2 (Ag AB), report the result is negative. I would like to ask the doctor I can exclude the?? and test center staff told me that CMIA inspection accuracy than ELISA high.
Avatar m tn Is the hiv elisa test{without the confirmatory test}the most reliable and accurate for detecting the hiv virus if you wait outside the 6 month window period?Is a second, third or fourth generation superior to a first generation elisa? Also why do blood banks use naat and other fancy tests to detect hiv? Do they do that to simply shorten the window period or would such fancy tests as naat, antigen, etc.
Avatar n tn t detect any virus.Also same time I took an ELISA test negative.Can anybody tell me if I am safe from HIV?I saw the info from US CDC saying that exposure on average after 25 days the antibody can be detected.Sigh,i am still worried.Anybody help me n give comments?Thank you.
Avatar m tn elisa test is an extremely accurate test. Its window period is 3 months after the last exposure. A negative result, which is given by taking this test 3 months after an exposure, is fully conclusive.
Avatar m tn I am very worried, I had a Elisa blood lab test 8-10 weeks possible exposure.Possible exposure in January. I went to the doctor and he said my results were negative. Can I be assured that I am negative. I have another test scheduled in July should I be worried.
Avatar m tn Thank's for your answer. I have an unprotected sex with a girl in Eritrea on 29 Nov 2012. I already underwent an ELFA test on February 25 2013 (88 days after exposure) and the result is "Non Reactive", also an imunochromatograf test on May 9, ELISA test on 11 May, and also it coming "Non Reactive". But there is still a lot symptoms appear on my body, like skin rashes, swollen lymph nodes, fatigue etc. What is the diference between ELISA and ELFA?
Avatar m tn hello i'm from malaysia.i had short (about 1 mins)oral sex (without condom)with a lady in 27th jan.after 3 weeks i got fever and flu(3-5 days),it's never happended again till now. i did elisa test(generation 1 or 2) on 11th march(from 27th jan till 11th march=6 weeks).it's showed negetif,but the doctor ask me to come back after 3 months due to the window period. 1. does 6 weeks mean from the day i had sex(27th jan to 11th march) untill the day i did blood test? 2.
Avatar f tn t get a lot of information on this test. I know it is not an ELISA and that really bothers me. I had a full std panel done at 6 weeks from exposure and then an hiv only test at ten weeks. I am going to ask for another full std panel at 12 weeks to include another hiv antibody test. 1. For hiv, is 12 weeks conclusive or do I need to wait until 13 weeks? 2. Is Labcorps ICMA hiv 1/0/2 ICMA antibody test as sensitive and accurate as a 3rd generation ELISA? 3.
Avatar m tn What test would that lab do to test me for HIV.. I know its the ELISA test but its it more advanced or do they use the rapid as well, and if it were poz then do a Western Blot test.. I was just Wondering.
Avatar f tn To my knowledge, it only serves as a confirmatory test if your antibodies test (ELISA or Rapid) shows that you are positive, in which case a conclusive result can only be obtained 3 months post-possible exposure.
Avatar m tn HIV DUO test is NOT approved in the US.
Avatar m tn A test at 3 months is conclusive.
