MONOLISA Anti-HBs EIA

NAME AND INTENDED USE

The Bio-Rad MONOLISA Anti-HBs EIA is a qualitative and quantitative enzyme immunoassay for the detection of antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen in human serum and EDTA, heparin, or citrated plasma. The assay results may be used as an aid in the determination of susceptibility to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in individuals prior to or following HBV vaccination or where vaccination status is unknown. Assay results may be used with other HBV serological markers for the laboratory diagnosis of HBV disease associated with HBV infection. A reactive assay result will allow a differential diagnosis in individuals displaying signs and symptoms of hepatitis in whom etiology is unknown. The MONOLISA Anti-HBs EIA is intended for manual use and for use with the Bio-Rad EVOLIS Automated Microplate System in the detection of antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen.
