HIV false positive screening serology due to sample contamination reduced by a dedicated sample and platform in a high prevalence environment.

HIV false positive screening serology due to sample contamination reduced by a dedicated sample and platform in a high prevalence environment.

Automated testing of HIV serology on clinical chemistry analysers has become common. High sample throughput, high HIV prevalence and instrument design could all contribute to sample cross-contamination by microscopic droplet carry-over from seropositive samples to seronegative samples resulting in f...
