Avatar n tn Others may cross-react with it that are negative. The western blot is used as a confirmatory test only after a reactive ELISA. The ELISA is often reactive before the WB. Take care.

Avatar f tn Hiye, this may seem a silly question but is the Elisa test that is used for HIV the same as the Elisa test used for rheumatoid arthritis?.. Is the Elisa just a standard antibody test that is not disease specific and if reactive then a specific test is used?..
Avatar f tn 28 days or later for a 4th generation test or 3 months for a 3rd generation test. To surmise is not helpful. You need to contact your Dr or the lab that did the test to get your answer.

Avatar n tn Then at 8 weeks post exposure I tested negative for Candida, but my tongue looked the same. It is whiter in the back, with a thick mucus that can be minimized if scraped with a tongue scraper. Towards the front it is still whiter except the tip is pink. Please keep in mind that I tested negative for Fungi the entire time. At two weeks post exposure I was very stressed to the point of not being able to mentally function very well.
Avatar m tn I took the test on a private lab and on their forum they said that is 4th gen Eclia combo ag/ab But on the phone when i ask about the test they told me that the metod used is chemiluminescente centaur test (or something like that) Does a test like that is possible?

Avatar f tn Therefore, a positive antigen test does not confirm that a sample is infectious, and should not be used for that purpose. The only means available to demonstrate that a sample contains infectious virus is by virus isolation and culture. A negative result for antigen does not rule out infection, because the test lacks exquisite sensitivity; i.e., the test should not be used to verify noninfection.

11681875 tn?1437537975 the drug you have used is called lamivudine and it is not a drug for hbv anymore, it just mutates virus to more aggressive and all antivirals useless, now do not use any antiviral but tenofovir which is the most potent drug working on all mutated hbv look for tenofovir as soon as possible because the mutation under lamivudine can be very serious and make deadly flares as a worst scenario, who used lamivudine for you today in 2015 is an absolute killer
