[A comparison of the radioimmunologic and immunoenzyme methods of detecting HBsAg]
Abstract:
The frequency of HBsAg detection by these two methods is similar, but only half of positive results is confirmed by both methods. This discrepancy appears to be explained by inadequate technology of the reagent preparation or by impossibility to rule out false-positive results. Combinations of highly sensitive methods for HBsAg indication are recommended for clinical diagnosis of hepatitis B.
