Performance of rapid tests for discrimination between HIV-1 and/or HIV-2 infections.

abstract：:The ability of hepatitis A virus (HAV) to agglutinate human erythrocytes was used to develop IgM and IgG antibody capture haemadherence tests (MACHAT and GACHAT). Haemadherence was dependent on the pH of the red cell suspension and was best in the pH range 5.4 to 5.8. The tests were applied to serum, urine, and saliva...
