Hiv DUO TEST

Index of antibody =0.07
Index of P24 Antigen =0.00
Threshold and interpretation of result:
Index i interpretation
i0.25 Reactive for Antigen (P24) Or Antibody

COMMENT:The kit simultaneously detects:
i)HIV-1 antibodies (lgG & lgM class of sub-type O & gp41) and HIV-2 antibodies (lgG class of gp36)
ii) P24 antigen
*The test aims to reduce the window period and picks the patient in very early stage.
Note:High Antibody level may mask the antigen result and vice versa. The test value is not displayed for the masked result and the message ND - NOT DETERMINABLE appears in the result.

For someone that never had a risk your test results were always going to be negative.

Your result was negative, that's really all you need to know.  The rest of the wording just explains what the test is looking for.

Hi prempavan,

Your post is a bit difficult to follow. If I understand correct, the cut-off point is 0.25? And your antibody result is 0.07 and your antigen result is 0.00?
If my understanding is correct, then you are HIV negative.

Maybe, I would suggest you should check with your doctor that performed the test for you. Didn't he/she interpret the result for you? Or you did the test through online service? If's that's the case, please contact the lab or the person that handles the test for clear result interpretation.

Thanks.
