Resumo

The Bio-Rad Geenius HIV 1/2 assay was evaluated as an alternative to the INNO-LIA HIV 1/2 assay for the confirmation of HIV infection in 198 serum samples reactive to 4th-generation HIV enzyme immunoassays (EIAs). The Geenius assay correctly identified 85% of the samples, compared to 75% identified by the INNO-LIA assay, reduced the number of indeterminate results, and shortened the overall turnaround time.
