Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the detectability of HIV antigen-antibody in the window period of acute infection by three HIV antigen-antibody assays.Methods Twenty-two samples of HIV seroconversion serum panels and thirty-seven HIV acute infected plasm samples from our laboratory collected from cohort study of men who have sex with men between 2009 and 2011,were assayed by ECLIA,CLIA and ELISA methods.All assays were evaluated for the ability to detect HIV in the window period,and the sensitivity of each assay for acute samples was analyzed.Chi square test was used for statistical analysis.Results The ability of detecting HIV in the window period of each assay was different.For HIV seroconversion serum panels,the results of ECLIA and CLIA assays were consistent,and the window period was shortened at least 1 to 5 days compared with ELISA assay.For HIV acute samples,all were HIV positive by ECLIA or CLIA assay,but for ELISA assay,94.6％ was positive.For samples before seroconversion,ECLIA and CLIA assay had the same sensitivity (93.5％),which is superior to ELISA assay (71.0％) (x2 =5.14,P ＜0.05).Conclusion The ability of detecting HIV in the window period was different for each assay.The results of ECLIA and CLIA assay are consistent,superior to ELISA assay.
