Screen — HIV Multiplex Flow Immunoassay and EIA

The Next Generation in HIV Testing

BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag‐Ab Assay5th Generation

BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag‐Ab Assay5th Generation

The BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag‐Ab multiplex immunoassay helps you perform the first step of the HIV Testing Algorithm. The assay helps identify HIV‐1 and HIV‐2 infection and acute HIV‐1infection through the detection of HIV‐1 and HIV‐2 antibodies and HIV‐1 p24 antigen.

High Sensitivity

Thanks to its high sensitivity for HIV‐1 p24 Ag detection and ability to differentiate between HIV‐1 and HIV‐2 antibodies, the HIV Ag‐Ab multiplex assay detects early acute infections and guides in the choice of supplemental testing through the HIV testing algorithm.

Confirm — Geenius HIV 1/2 Supplemental Assay

The Geenius HIV 1/2 Supplemental Assay is designed to test specimens with a reactive HIV Ag/Ab immunoassay result (or repeatedly reactive, if repeat testing is recommended by manufacturer) determined in Step 1 of the HIV Testing Algorithm.

CDC HIV Testing Algorithm1

HIV algorithm table
Geenius

The Geenius HIV 1/2 Supplemental Assay is the only FDA-approved test for the confirmation and differentiation of antibodies to HIV‐1 and HIV‐2, as required in the second step of the CDC HIV Testing Algorithm.

Note: Specimens that are reactive in the HIV Ag/Ab screen and non‐reactive or indeterminate in the HIV‐1/HIV‐2 Ab differentiation test should be tested with an FDA-approved HIV‐1 nucleic acid test.

Control — Bio-Rad VIROTROL HIV Controls

HIV information
lab products

The role of the diagnostic laboratory in providing reliable test results is a key component in controlling the spread of infection.

Reporting false negative results can be just as devastating as reporting false positive results when it comes to the treatment and personal lifestyle changes affecting patients.

Using Bio-Rad VIROTROL HIV controls for an unbiased, independent assessment of your testing systems helps to provide additional confidence in your test results.
