Overview

Early HIV identification is critical to help mitigate transmission, begin treatment quickly, and improve patient outcomes. When following recommended guidelines, HIV confirmation testing involves multiple steps and time-consuming test methods. This challenges laboratories to report HIV results quickly and efficiently.

HIV Differentiation — Early Detection, Identification, and Treatment

BioPlex2200-HIV blue bead wheel

Unlock fast, efficient HIV testing through the power of multiplex technology. The BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag-Ab panel detects and differentiates HIV antigen and antibodies in a single screening test.

  • HIV Ag-Ab (composite result)
  • HIV-1 p24 Ag
  • HIV-1 Ab (groups M & O)
  • HIV-2 Ab

Differentiated results enable early identification of acute HIV and can guide clinical laboratories in the selection of appropriate supplemental testing. Patient results can be reported sooner for immediate initiation of critical treatments.

 

"The ability to differentiate HIV antigen and antibody results in screening tests could enable improved testing algorithms that will reduce the time to confirmation and ultimately improve clinical care."

Streamline HIV Diagnosis

Differentiated HIV-1 p24 antigen, HIV-1 antibody, and HIV-2 antibody results provide more information at the screening level. This can help guide your lab in the selection of appropriate confirmatory testing.

Reduce Confirmation Testing

Are you frustrated by the unnecessary time spent confirming false-positive results? The BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag-Ab panel features excellent clinical specificity to help minimize false-positive results. This means fewer supplemental tests, less work for laboratory technologists, and less stress for physicians and patients.

Maximize Efficiency and Minimize Effort

Traditional HIV tests may require numerous manual processing steps. But with the fully automated BioPlex 2200 System, your technologists can complete HIV testing workloads with less hands-on time. Simply load the samples and walk away.

Case Study: Monthly Labor Time Comparison

See how you can reduce labor costs and make optimal use of medical laboratory technologists — your lab’s most valuable resource.

This case study compares manual processing time of the BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag-Ab panel to a competing fully automated HIV test. Data are based on an actual lab’s monthly HIV screen volume.

In total, 34% less hands-on time was required with multiplexing than with the competing test.

Improve Patient Care


Better patient outcomes depend on early HIV detection plus fast confirmation and result reporting. The BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag-Ab panel allows your lab to have both.

Detect Acute HIV Early to Minimize Transmission

The BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag-Ab panel enables the earliest possible HIV serology detection with extraordinary analytical sensitivity¹ and clinical seroconversion detection up to five days earlier than the most sensitive competing HIV tests.² By identifying acute HIV early, labs can help patients minimize HIV transmission.

Streamline HIV Diagnosis for Improved Patient Outcomes

Through multiplex technology, the BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag-Ab panel differentiates HIV antigen and antibodies in a single screening test. Differentiated results guide laboratories in selecting appropriate HIV supplemental testing.

Prevent Further Transmission

Prevent Further Transmission

Acute HIV is the most infectious phase of HIV infection. By differentiating HIV-1 p24 Ag at the screening level, labs can streamline confirmation steps, report results faster, and help patients prevent further transmission.

Confidence in EVERY Patient Result

In addition to external independent quality controls, patented quality control beads are integrated into the BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag-Ab Panel. This enables the real-time analysis of assay parameters for every test, providing additional confidence in every patient result.

Minimize Costs


Current HIV testing algorithms require multiple tests to confirm HIV-positive screening results — tests that can be labor intensive and very expensive. The BioPlex 2200 HIV Ag-Ab panel can help your lab optimize testing processes and minimize costs.
