RETROQUIC HIV is a rapid, qualitative flow-through immunoassay designed for the detection of antibodies to HIV-1 and HIV-2 in human serum or plasma samples. The test is ideal for screening, clinics, hospitals, and diagnostic laboratories, offering fast and highly reliable results.

Principle:
The test is based on a membrane-based flow-through immunoconcentration technique:

• Sample antibodies specific to HIV-1 or HIV-2 bind to purified synthetic peptides immobilized on the test strip at regions ‘1’ (HIV-1) and ‘2’ (HIV-2).

• A blue dyed protein A control band (C) ensures the test validity.

• The concentrated flow method allows detection in just 5 minutes.

Performance:

• Sensitivity: 100% for HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies

• Specificity: 100% for HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies

• Test duration: 5 minutes

Reagents & Components:

• Individually pouched flow-through test devices

• HIV-1 and HIV-2 specific purified synthetic peptides

• Blue protein A control band

• Wash buffer and protein A-conjugated gold sol solution

• Package insert

Storage & Stability:

• Store at 2–8°C

• Shelf life: 24 months
