Intended Use
The HBsAg+HBsAb+HBeAg+HBeAb+HBcAb 5 in 1 HBV Combo Test is a rapid immunochromatography assay for the qualitative detection of the markers of hepatitis b virusincluding hepatitis b virus surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis b virus surface antibody (HBsAb), hepatatis b virus envelope antigen (HBeAg), hepatatis b virus envelope antibody (HBeAb) and hepatatis b virus core antibody (HBcAb) in human whole blood/serum/plasma.
Summary
Hepatitis b virus (HBV) is an enveloped; double-stranded DNA virus belonging to the hepadnaviridae family and is recognized as the major cause of blood transmitted hepatitis together with hepatitis c virus (HCV). Infection with HBV induces acute or chronic liver diseases and in some cases that can lead to cirrhosis and carcinoma of the liver. Hepatitis b surface antigen or HBsAg, which was previously described as Australia antigen is the most important protein of the envelope of hepatitis b virus. The surface antigen contains the determinant "a", common to all known viral subtypes, immunologically distinguished in two distinct subgroups (ay and ad). HBV has 10 major serotypes and four HBsAg subtypes have been recognized (adw, ady, ayw, and ayr). HBsAg can be detected 2 to 4 weeks before the ALT levels become abnormal and 3 to 5 weeks before symptoms develop.
