The performance of HIV rapid antibody detection assays in children
Background: HIV rapid antibody assays are important for screening children aged <18 months for HIV exposure and children ≥ 18 months for HIV infection. Limited available data indicate variable performance of different HIV rapid tests in comparison to laboratory HIV antibody assays. The aim of this …

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and surface plasmon resonance for diagnostic antibody detection
The successful use of biomarker antibody detection for disease diagnosis is currently restricted to cases where the antibody affinity and specificity of interaction with antigen is high. Evanescent field biosensing, e.g. Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR), and electrochemical detection, in particular …
