摘要
With global efforts to scale up the prevention of mother-to-child transmission services and pediatric antiretrovirall therapy, there is an urgent need to introduce a simple, low-cost infant human immunodeficiency virus test in the field. We postulated that the p24 antigen capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay could be simplified by eliminating signal amplification without compromising diagnostic accuracy.
