Evaluation of a new enhanced luminescence immunoassay for confirming the presence of HBsAg in human serum or plasma.
An enhanced luminescence assay was developed to confirm the presence of HBsAg in weakly reactive sera. The test proved reliable in differentiating between truly reactive and falsely reactive samples.
