test HIV using equipment vida and biomerieux
der doc ... I apologize for the umpteenth time I post a question in this forum, I hope one among this forum can help me to calm my mind, 1. I do HIV ELISA test using VIDAS test equipment and bio merieuox in day 77 and the results are NON reaktive, but there is a unit number Tv = 0.003, so what is the purpose of the unit numbers, 2. whether the test at 77 days (11 weeks) is strong enough to prove that I am HIV negative
thanks .. has given me peace of mind, I do not know, whether it is a test generation 4 or 3 generations, the doctor just told me that I was in the ELISA test using test kits Vidas and biomerieux...
Specific questions about your test you should have asked at the lab that gave you the test. The numbers are irrelevant as long as they stay lesser than the needed value (usually 1.00). If you are way beyond the window period 77 days( 6 weeks) and you got a non- reactive value. 4th gen test. Your test are conclusive.
