This test is intended for screening purposes only. Results should not be used to determine the serotype of HIV infections.
Due to possible cross reactivity, the appearance of lines in both T1 and T2 does not necessarily indicate co-infection from HIV-1, HIV-2 and Subtype O nor can it identify the serotype.
