HEPATITIS B SURFACE ANTIGEN (HBs-Ag), SERUM

Reference values Modification

Test code: 130
Mnemonic code:AGBSAB

Effective update from 04/11/2024

Starting from 04/11/2024, for the Hepatitis B surface antigen test (130-AGBSAB), a result range labeled as "inconclusive" will be established. This range corresponds to positive results that are close to the cut-off point set by the reagent manufacturer (index 1). In this result range, a confirmation protocol will be applied using a neutralization test.

This will also result in a change in the reference values indicated in the report, so that:
