The 4th Gen HIV-1 & HIV-2 ELISA Test Kit is a professional-grade, high-performance enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay designed for the simultaneous detection of the HIV-1 p24 antigen and antibodies (IgG, IgM, and IgA) to both HIV-1 and HIV-2 in human clinical serum or plasma specimens. By combining antigen and antibody recognition systems, this advanced combo assay significantly shortens the diagnostic window period for early detection in screening environments.

Key Product Features
- Reduced Window Period: Detects the early p24 viral antigen before the body produces antibodies, allowing early detection weeks ahead of traditional 3rd-generation tests.
- Dual Target Mechanism: Combines solid-phase antibody and antigen recognition to capture multiple viral markers in a single, high-throughput microplate workflow.
- High-Throughput Optimization: Perfectly calibrated for automated microplate washer and reader systems, allowing pathology labs to run 96 multi-well slots efficiently.
- Robust Batch Consistency: Strict manufacturing quality control structures minimize well-to-well drift variations, guaranteeing steady optical density (OD) readings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What is the main clinical advantage of a 4th Generation HIV ELISA test kit?
Ans: A 4th Gen HIV ELISA test kit detects both HIV-1/HIV-2 antibodies and the free HIV-1 p24 antigen. Traditional 3rd-gen tests only look for antibodies, which can take weeks to develop. By targeting the p24 antigen (a protein that appears early after exposure), this kit drastically shortens the diagnostic window period, ensuring safer screening in blood banks and clinical centers.
Q2. What are the strict storage parameters required for the 4th Gen HIV ELISA plate kit?
Ans: To maintain the structural stability of the pre-coated antibodies/antigens and internal enzyme-conjugates, the entire kit package must be stored properly in a diagnostic refrigerator between 2°C to 8°C. Components must never be frozen or subjected to sudden thermal exposure.
Q3. Which precise sample mediums are validated for this laboratory assay?
Ans: This laboratory-grade kit is validated and optimized for professional in-vitro use with clean human Serum or Plasma specimens. Samples should be completely clear, non-hemolyzed, and free of microbial contamination before loading into the micro-wells.
