[Quality evaluation of the immunoenzymatic reagent for detection of antibody to HIV]

Abstract

Comparing with foreign ELISA reagent and Western blot, evaluation of the quality of the immunoenzymatic reagent was done by testing four set of sera from residents in the border of Yunnan province and other provinces results suggested that the sensitivity of IE was 100% and its specificity was 99.4%. Other indexes were similar to imported ELISA reagent. So IE reagent can be used in national HIV surveillance. The quality evaluation is credible because of the great number of tested sera.
