Hepatitis – ELISA

HCV IgM – ELISA

Enzyme ImmunoAssay (ELISA) for the quantitative/qualitative determination of IgM antibodies to Hepatitis C Virus in human plasma and sera. The kit is mainly intended for the follow-up of HCV chronic patients submitted to anti-viral pharmaceutical treatment.

Hepatitis – ELISA

HEV IgM – ELISA

Enzyme ImmunoAssay (ELISA) for the determination of IgM antibodies to Hepatitis E Virus in human plasma and sera.
The kit may be used for the determination of the acute phase of infection where IgM antibodies are generated before the other immunoglobulins and for the follow-up of HEV-infected patients.
For “in vitro” diagnostic use only.

 

Microplates are coated with HEV-specific recombinant antigens encoding for conservative and immunodominant determinants of all the 4 subtypes.
The solid phase is first treated with the diluted sample and anti HEV IgM are captured, if present, by the antigens.
After washing out all the other components of the sample, in the 2nd incubation bound anti-HEV IgM are detected by the addition of polyclonal specific anti hIgM antibodies, labelled with peroxidase (HRP).
The enzyme captured on the solid phase, acting on the substrate/chromogen mixture, generates an optical signal that is proportional to the amount of anti HEV IgM present in the sample. A cut-off value let optical densities be interpreted into anti-HEV IgM negative and positive results.
Neutralization of IgG anti-HEV and Rheumatoid Factor, carried out directly in the well, is performed in the assay in order to block such kind of interferences.

Hepatitis – ELISA

HEV IgG – ELISA

Third generation Enzyme ImmunoAssay (ELISA) for the qualitative determination of IgG antibodies to Hepatitis E Virus in human plasma and sera.
The kit is intended for the follow-up of HEV-infected patients.
For “in vitro” diagnostic use only.

 

Microplates are coated with HEV-specific recombinant antigens encoding for conservative and immunodominant determinants of all the 4 subtypes.
The solid phase is first treated with the diluted sample and anti HEV IgG are captured, if present, by the antigens.
After washing out all the other components of the sample, in the 2nd incubation bound anti-HEV IgG are detected by the addition of polyclonal specific anti hIgG antibodies, labelled with peroxidase (HRP).
The enzyme captured on the solid phase, acting on the substrate/chromogen mixture, generates an optical signal that is proportional to the amount of anti HEV IgG present in the sample. A cut-off value let optical densities be interpreted into anti-HEV IgG negative and positive results.

Hepatitis – ELISA

HEV Ab (Version ULTRA) – ELISA

Third generation Enzyme ImmunoAssay (ELISA) for the qualitative determination of total antibodies to Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) in serum and plasma. The kit is intended for the follow-up of HEV-infected patients and the screening of blood units.
In addition, due to the assay configuration of the product, the kit may be used also in testing total antibodies to HEV in serum and plasma derived from other not-human recipients for zoonotic studies.
For “in vitro” diagnostic use only.

 

Microplates are coated with highly specific synthetic antigen encoding for conservative and immunodominant determinants of HEV.
The solid phase is first treated with the sample where anti HEV total antibodies (mostly IgG, IgM and IgA) are captured, if present, by the antigens.
After washing out all the other components of the sample, in the second incubation bound anti HEV total antibodies are detected by the addition of the same HEV highly specific synthetic antigen labeled with peroxidase (HRP).
The enzyme captured on the solid phase, acting on the substrate/chromogen mixture, generates an optical signal that is proportional to the amount of anti HEV antibodies present in the sample. After blocking the enzymatic reaction, its optical density is measured by an ELISA reader.
The version ULTRA is particularly suitable for automated screenings.

Hepatitis – ELISA

HDV IgM – ELISA

Enzyme ImmunoAssay (ELISA) for the determination of IgM class antibodies to Hepatitis Delta Virus or HDV in human plasma and sera with the “capture” system. The kit is intended for the classification of the viral infective agent and the follow-up of HDV infected patients. For “in vitro” diagnostic use only.

Microplates are coated with a monoclonal anti-hIgM antibody that in the 1st incubation “captures” specifically this class of antibodies.
After washing out all the other components of the sample, in the 2nd incubation bound anti HDV IgM are detected by the addition of recombinant HDV antigen immunocomplexed with a specific antibody, labeled with peroxidase (HRP).
After washing, the enzyme captured on the solid phase, acting on the substrate/chromogen mixture, generates an optical signal that is proportional to the amount of IgM antibodies present in the sample.

Hepatitis – ELISA

HDV Ag – ELISA

Third generation Enzyme ImmunoAssay (ELISA) for the determination of Hepatitis Delta Virus or HDV in human plasma and sera. The kit is intended for the follow-up of HDV infected patients. For “in vitro” diagnostic use only.
HDV Ag, if present in the sample, is captured by a specific monoclonal antibody, in the 1st incubation. A detergent is added to the sample in order to dissolve the specific antigen from HDV particles.

In the 2nd incubation, after washing, a tracer, composed of a second anti HDV Ag antibody, labeled with peroxidase (HRP), is added to the microplate and binds to the captured HDV Ag.
The concentration of the bound enzyme on the solid phase is proportional to the amount of HDV Ag in the sample and its activity is detected by adding the chromogen/substrate in the 3rd incubation.
The presence of HDV Ag in the sample is determined by means of a cut-off value that allows for the semi quantitative detection of the antigen.

Hepatitis – ELISA

HDV Ab – ELISA

Competitive Enzyme ImmunoAssay (ELISA) for the determination of antibodies to Hepatitis Delta Virus or HDV in human plasma and sera with a “two-steps” methodology. The kit is used for the follow-up of patients infected by HDV. For “in vitro” diagnostic use only.
Anti-HDV antibodies, if present in the sample, compete with a virus-specific polyclonal IgG, labeled with peroxidase (HRP), for a fixed amount of rec-HDV coated on the microplate.

The test is carried out with a two steps incubation competitive system. First the sample is added to the plate and specific anti HDV antibodies bind to the adsorbed antigen. After washing, an enzyme conjugated polyclonal antibody to HDV is added and binds to the free portion of the antigen coated.
After washing a chromogen/substrate mixture is dispensed. The concentration of the bound enzyme on the solid phase becomes inversely proportional to the amount of anti-HDV antibodies in the sample and its activity is detected by the added chromogen/substrate.
The concentration of HDV-specific antibodies in the sample is determined by means of a cut-off value that allows for the semi quantitative detection of anti-HDV antibodies.

Hepatitis – ELISA

HCV Ab Confirmation – ELISA

Hepatitis C Virus or HCV is an enveloped RNA virus recently classified in the family of Flaviviridae.
The genome encodes for structural components, a nucleocapsid protein and two envelope glycoproteins, and functional constituents involved in the virus replication and protein processing. The nucleocapsid-encoding region seems to be the most conservative among the isolates obtained all over the world.
THCV accounts for about 95% of hepatitis infections in recipients of blood transfusion and 50% of cases of sporadic NANB hepatitis. 

HCV commonly gives origin to asymptomatic hepatitis and chronicity develops in a high number of cases, sometime evolving in severe forms of illness, as hepato-carcinoma.
The determination of antibody to HCV has become mandatory in the screening of blood units to prevent post-transfusion hepatitis. It is also currently used to follow-up risk individuals and patients under treatment with interferon.
Conformation of any positive result is strongly recommended in the clinical laboratory practice before considering the patient truly positive for anti HCV antibodies.

Hepatitis – ELISA

HBe Ag&Ab – ELISA

Enzyme ImmunoAssay (ELISA) for the determination of Hepatitis B Virus “e” Antigen and Antibody in human plasma and sera.
The kit is intended for the follow-up of acute infection and of chronic patients under therapy.

For “in vitro” diagnostic use only.

HBeAg, if present in the sample, is captured by a specific monoclonal antibody, in the 1st incubation.
In the 2nd incubation, after washing, a tracer, composed of a mix of two specific anti HBeAg monoclonal antibodies, labeled with peroxidase (HRP), is added to the microplate and binds to the captured HBeAg.
