Evaluation for the performance of HIV Ag/Ab assay based on ECLIA in blood screening

Journal Title: Chinese Journal of Blood Transfusion - Year 2022, Vol 35, Issue 6

Abstract

Objective To evaluate the performance of electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) in detecting HIV antigen/antibody in blood screening. Methods A total of 128 donors, reactive to anti-HIV(ELISA)testing, from September 2016 to September 2020 were enrolled, and seven samples were reactive to double anti-HIV reagents, among which 6 were confirmed by WB, 1 confirmed by NAT as negative.Two group of donors, reactive to solo anti-HIV reagent but being confirmed negative by WB(n=121) vs.randomly selected donors non-reactive to ELISA + NAT(June to September 2020, n=1360), were subjected to HIV antigen/antibody testing using ECLIA to compare the testing results, including concordance rate, sensitivity and specificity. Results The ECLIA results remained non-reactive for 1360 samples initially non-reactive to both ELISA and NAT.The concordance rate of anti-HIV reactivity by ECLIA and ELISA+ WB were 100%(6/6). For 122 samples, reactive to ELISA anti-HIV testing but nonreactive to confirmatory testing, 4(3.28%)of them were reactive to HIV antigen/antibody testing and 118(96.72%) nonreactive, with the concordance rate of ECLIA and ELISA at 96.88%(124/128). The sensitivity, specificity and false positive rate of ECLIA and ELISA were 100% vs 100%, 99.73% vs 91.77%, and 0.27% vs 8.23%, respectively. Conclusion ECLIA for HIV antigen/antibody detection has good sensitivity and specificity, which can meet the requirements of blood screening, and the false positive rate is lower than that of ELISA, adopted commonly in blood bank at present.
