Question

True or False:

1. During the current lab, the samples from patients were tested for anti-HIV antibodies   

2. The sample from the patient number 1 was found to be positive                                          

3. The positive control sample contained HIV antigens            

4. The positive sample from the patient contained anti-HIV antibodies at high concentration

5. Anti-HIV antibodies were labeled with enzyme that interacted with the substrate thus producing the color                                                                                                                

  

  

Answer 1

1. True as in current lab test anti-HIV antibodies can be detected as early as almost the three weeks of exposure

2. True as the sample may be positive in first sample i.e. the acute sample, which is depicted by the antigen-antibody complex

3. True as it is taken as standard for the comparitive analysis

4. True.as it reveals the relatively high concentration of anti-HIV antibodies

5.True As anti-HIV antibodies were labeled with enzyme and gives the color on reaction to the substrate.
