I am at the lab trying to test hbsag quantity. but it seems they are confused. they say they can rather measure the amount of hbsab rather. should I move or is there another name for it.

what they offer to you is hbs anti body usually tested after vaccination. What you need is hepatitis b surface antigen (Hbsag in short). Probably your lab has never heard of qHbsag and there is not much you can do about it, just try to find another one to test your hbsag in quantity.

The name is hbs ag quantitative test hepatitis B surface anti gen
If they do not know go somewhere else. This is typical in one lab in central paris they were convincing me that hbs ag quantitity test does not exist .., such ignorant ....
