Detection of HIV-1 and HCV Infections among Antibody-Negative Blood Donors by Nucleic Acid–Amplification Testing

18 Aug 2004

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Testing of blood donors for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA by means of nucleic acid amplification was introduced in the United States as an investigational screening test in mid-1999 to identify donations made during the window period before seroconversion. METHODS: We analyzed all antibody-nonreactive donations that were confirmed to be positive for HIV-1...
