MERISCREEN® HIV 4th Generation Rapid Test (50T) | Ag+Ab Combo

MERISCREEN® HIV 4th Generation — Simultaneous Detection of HIV p24 Antigen & HIV-1/2 Antibodies

MERISCREEN® HIV 4th Generation is an advanced rapid immunochromatographic combo test that simultaneously detects HIV p24 antigen (acute/early infection) and HIV-1 & HIV-2 antibodies (established infection). This Ag+Ab combination narrows the seronegative window period, enabling earlier HIV detection compared to conventional 3rd generation tests.
