Real-time PCR A type of nucleic acid amplification method based on the basic principle of PCR, which uses oligonucleotides that emit fluorescence upon decomposition to quantify target nucleic acids in real time by checking the fluorescent signal at each PCR cycle. A measurement method that enables

COMMENT
Please avoid duplicate requests of other items. With this testing method, the affects of contamination are greater, so please be careful when collecting and handling the specimen. After collecting the specified amount into the container shown below, gently mix by inversion 4 to 5 times, centrifuge at room temperature, freeze, and submit. Please avoid duplicate requests of other items. This testing method can be affected by contamination, so please be careful when collecting and handling the specimen.
(1) If there is no risk of infection, it will be determined to be non-infected,
but if there is a risk of infection or it is unknown, please conduct another screening test in a few weeks.
(2) HIV-2 nucleic acid amplification test is not covered by insurance, so please consult a specialist institution.
(3) It may be during HIV-1 treatment or infected with low viral load.
(4) If there is a risk of infection or it is unknown, please conduct another test in a few weeks.
Interpretation of antibody confirmation test method
HIV-1/2 antibody confirmation test method (IC method)
This method is used for confirmation test of HIV-1/2 infection.
If the result of antigen antibody simultaneous screening test method is positive,
and the result of this method is negative or withheld,
and HIV-1 RNA quantitative (Real Time PCR Method) is detected,
it is considered to be acute HIV-1 infection phase.
If the definitive diagnosis was made by the single positive of HIV-1 NAT method,
the positivity is needed to be confirmed by this method within an appropriate period of time (after 2 weeks).
<Measurement results>
[HIV-1 Positive]
Either p31/gp160/p24/gp41 reacts, and the reactions of 2
or more items including either gp160 or gp41 are observed.
[HIV-1 Negative]
No reactions are observed for either p31, gp160, p24, or gp41.
[HIV-1 Withheld]
If it is neither positive nor negative.
[HIV-2 Positive]
Reactions are observed for both gp36 and gp140.
[HIV-2 Negative]
No reactions are observed for either gp36 or gp140.
[HIV-2 Withheld]
If it is neither positive nor negative.
Interpretation of HIV-1 nucleic acid amplification test
HIV-1 RNA quantitative (Real Time PCR method)
This method is used for confirmation test of HIV-1 infection, to determine the progression of the disease,
to decide timing to start treatment, treatment follow-up, etc.
<Measurement results>
[Not detected]
HIV-1RNA was not detected. However, this result does not deny the presence
of HIV. Please determine comprehensively according to the clinical symptoms and the other test results.
