Medical Term Of The Day! – HIV test
28/04/10
HIV test: A test for the human immunodeficiency virus, the cause of

The antibody tests are:
ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay): a screening test used to detect infection with HIV. If positive, the ELISA test is usually repeated.
Western blot: a test usually used to confirm the results of an ELISA. It can rule out a false-positive by distinguishing HIV antibodies from other antibodies that may react to the ELISA.
IFA (indirect fluorescent antibody): a test used like the less expensive Western blot to confirm the results of an ELISA.
