Reliability of a Newly-Developed Immunochromatography Diagnostic Kit for Pandemic Influenza A/H1N1pdm Virus: Implications for Drug Administration
BACKGROUND For the diagnosis of seasonal influenza, clinicians rely on point-of-care testing (POCT) using commercially available kits developed against seasonal influenza viruses. However, POCT has not yet been established for the diagnosis of pandemic influenza A virus (H1N1pdm) infection due to the low sensitivity of the existing kits for H1N1pdm. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS An immunochr...
متن کاملExperience with a fourth generation human immunodeficiency virus serological assay at a tertiary care centre in south India.
VDRL and TPHA test was 1.3% (2/150). This is lower than the prevalence rates reported in studies carried out in Delhi (6.09%),[2] Germany (3.3%) and Bangladesh (23%).[3] The possible explanation for this could be the difference in the subgroup of population studied and the diagnostic tests employed. In addition, region, gender, ethnic factors and socioeconomic factors which inß uence the develo...
متن کاملFourth-generation enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the simultaneous detection of human immunodeficiency virus antigen and antibody.
The VIDAS HIV DUO Ultra, a fourth-generation immunoassay under development for the simultaneous detection of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) p24 antigen and antibodies to HIV-1 and HIV-2, was evaluated. The enzyme-linked fluorescence immunoassay, performed on the automated VIDAS instrument, is claimed to detect early and established HIV infection. The assay was challenged with a tot...
متن کاملScreening for primary aldosteronism using the newly developed IDS-iSYS® automated assay system
BACKGROUND The recommended approach to screening for primary aldosteronism (PA) in at-risk populations is to determine the ratio of aldosterone concentration (serum (SAC)/plasma (PAC)) to renin measured in plasma as activity (PRA) or concentration (DRC). However, lack of assay standardisation mandates the need for method-specific decision thresholds and clinical validation in the local populati...
متن کاملComparison of a lateral-flow immunochromatography assay with real-time reverse transcription-PCR for detection of human metapneumovirus.
A lateral-flow immunochromatography (IC) assay for the detection of human metapneumovirus (hMPV) has been developed by using two mouse monoclonal antibodies to the nucleocapsid protein of hMPV. The purpose of this study was to compare the virus detection rate in nasopharyngeal secretions by the IC assay with that by real-time reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR). We collected nasopharyngeal swab ...
