Elisa Test Result Was Rushed

Hi  , is it possible to receive an elisa antibody/antigen test result within one hour. I was told it took days to get an accurate result from this type of test. If the elisa test was rushed and results were given in one hour, can i trust the results of this test. I believe they used the newer generation elisa test. Is it possible newer generation test results can be received in one hour, i was told by a doctor it is unlikely to be accurate. Pls give your advice.

my report says: HIV Antibody 1 and 2: Non-Reactive, so I just wanted to confirm whether it is a 3rd generation standard antibody test or not?

Yeah it's conclusive if it's negative. If it's not then it must be confirmed by another test which is western blot
