Why is RT-PCR Test more accurate than Antigen Test?

Everyone wants to be safe before they get a blood transfusion by checking with a very reliable and accurate testing method to make sure that there is no infection of HIV, HBV, HPV, HSV or HCV.

The need also happens when one feels unsafe about a sexual encounter they had, and also after getting a tattoo lot of people are getting infected with the HIV virus and they want to make sure they are not infected with the above viruses.

Like COVID-19, the RT-PCR test is still the gold standard for screening for HIV, and HBV especially before doing blood donation. At AMMAGENOMICS we follow according to WHO (World Health Organization).

To rule out false positive or negative HIV test results, the WHO recommends additional HIV tests to be taken to avoid doubts and worries about HIV Infection.

Most diagnostic labs perform Serologic Tests (Elisa or Rapid Cards) and may miss HIV, HBV, HSV, HPV and HCV because these are RNA viruses that mutate frequently and lose sensitivity and specificity.

This happens especially when the viral load is low or if the person was recently infected and so false negatives are given based on the test done.

We at AMMAGENOMICS use Fourth Generation and high-quality Extraction Kits for doing RT-PCR tests.

At AMMAGENOMICS we offer Screening Rapid Tests, Qualitative and Quantitative RT-PCR Tests for HIV 1 & HIV 2, HCV, HSV, HBV, and HPV and give accurate results in a quick turnaround time of 3 to 4 hours.

We do both low-cost qPCR tests with basic information and detailed analysis with NGS (Next Generation Sequencing).
