REAGENTS FOR SEROLOGY TESTING
Hepatitis C core antigen can be detected soon after infection, before the development of antibodies to the virus, and remains detectable throughout chronic infection. Evaluations in transfusion settings have shown that the HCV Core Ag assay detects HCV infection as effective as NAT, about 40-50 days earlier than the current third generation anti-HCV screening assays. HCV core antigen levels closely follow HCV RNA dynamics, and allow clinical monitoring of a patient’s therapy, independently of HCV genotype. HCV Core Antigen Test
