A rapid test for the qualitative detection of Hepatitis B Envelope Antibody (HBeAb) in serum or plasma. For professional in vitro diagnostic use only.
Viral hepatitis is a systemic disease primarily involving the liver. Most cases of acute viral hepatitis are caused by Hepatitis A virus (HAV), Hepatitis B virus (HBV) or Hepatitis C virus (HCV). Hepatitis B e antibody is a protein secreted by HBV-infected cells. The presence of antibody against hepatitis B viral e antigen is used as an indicator for early HBs antigenemia before the peak of viral replication and early convalescence when HBeAg has declined below detectable levels. It is also useful to confirm a seroconversion. The seroconversion from HBeAg positive to anti-Hbe positive indicates a reduced level of infectious virus because virus replication has decreased. The HBeAb Rapid Test Cassette (Serum/Plasma) is a rapid test to qualitatively detect the presence of HBeAb in serum or plasma specimen. The test utilizes a combination of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to selectively detect elevated levels of HBeAb in serum or plasma. This one step test is very sensitive and only takes about 10-20 minutes. Test results are read visually without any instrument.
