Evaluation of rapid assays for screening and confirming HIV-1 infection in Ethiopia.

Evaluation of rapid assays for screening and confirming HIV-1 infection in Ethiopia.

To evaluate a simple and rapid testing strategy to diagnose HIV infection in Ethiopia, we subjected a panel of 688 sera with known HIV serologic status (confirmed by ELISA/WB or double ELISA) to 3 rapid assays: Determine HIV-1/2, Capillus HIV-1/2 and Serocard HIV. Samples were obtained from particip...
